Chapter 65 Recruiting Zhou Xing
Zhou Xing didn't want to sit in the back hall of this grocery store at all, but he had no choice because he had brought a hundred people from his family to this trip. Even though he was confident that he could beat Jiang Feng, what should those spiritual-level monks and mortal relatives do?
Especially when Qiaoer's rough figure with a fiery red sword appeared in his sight, he immediately became timid, and even took out a gray-white serrated bone knife, or said something harsh in the scene first, he had no idea of saying something harshly. In fact, he was also very bad at this and never spoke if he could do something.
"That's how it is. I'm no longer a member of the Hanshan Sect, so I'm proud of myself and let me go. The future is long and there will be a good reward in the future."
From Zhou Xing's slightly chaotic expression logic, Jiang Feng learned that as he expected, the sudden death of Tuobatu caused quite a stir in the Hanshan Sect. The local family Ma Aidu Sect, which had been suppressed by Tuobatu in disguise, took the lead. On the one hand, it was immediately ready to start to eliminate Tuobatu's loyalty and seize power; on the other hand, it sent envoys to Yufeng Sect for help and support. Zhou Xing was not valued under Tuobatu's command, but he had always had hatred with the Ma Aidu family, and this purge would inevitably be the first to be affected.
"What are your plans?"
"this……"
Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Feng with great doubts and hesitated for a moment, "I plan to go south and then east to find a place to stay in the Qimeng."
He didn't have any specific instructions. Jiang Feng guessed that on the one hand, he was wary of himself, which was very natural. The scene of the death fight in the snow mountain was still vivid in my mind. On the other hand, they probably ran away in a hurry and had not had time to contact the next family. Considering that the Hanshan Sect has always been blocked, Zhou Xing was just an ordinary Xuan-level monk and had no identity as an elder. Perhaps because he didn't have much contact with the outside world, the main reason was mostly the latter.
"How about staying in Asayama Sect?"
Jiang Feng wanted to recruit this person, and the sect was qualified to recruit casual cultivators. Moreover, the other party's cultivation level was not higher than that of himself, and the number of relatives, especially the cultivators, was not large, which fully comply with the provisions of the sect's legal system. The strength of the Asanyama Sect was weak, and it was just when it was unconventional and recruiting talents.
"this……"
Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, wanting to say something, but he couldn't keep up with his ideas. Obviously, he had never considered this idea. The Hanshan Sect was poor and weak, and the long-term "difficulty" had already made him retreat. If it weren't for the relocation of the mortals in the sect, he would have led them out of Hanshan to make another living. The problem is that although the Susanshan Sect is in a slightly better situation, it is not much better than the Hanshan Sect.
"The war between the Seven Alliance and the Tianli Sect is in chaos now. You go there rashly. Although you may have more opportunities to make achievements, it is not a good thing for your relatives and families." Zhou Xing brought a large number of relatives to accompany you, helping the elderly and young, which shows that he is a person who values feelings and will not make choices based on his own gains and losses.
"To be honest, I have no way, do you have one?" Jiang Feng said that stability was his first priority. Thinking of this, he had a little bit of anticipation in his eyes, but he soon became confused, and it was difficult for him to understand why the two of them wanted to help him.
"I'm here Jiang Feng, the leader of the Asanyama Sect." With his introduction, Jiang Feng's appearance changed and changed to his original appearance.
"What?" Zhou Xingteng stood up and subconsciously slashed at the storage bag with his right hand. He thought that he had been trapped by a villain, so he calmed down. He thought that changing his appearance might be the other party's unique skill, and the black beard and red-faced man had not changed. He was a little at a loss for a moment, and suddenly felt lost.
"Oh," he sighed, and his slightly rosy face seemed to add a hint of old aura, "I'm rude. I forgot that I'm no longer a member of the Hanshan Sect. It's you, killed the head of Tuoba?"
Jiang Feng did not reply, but took out a water-colored jade pendant. This was a decorative magic weapon hanging on Tuobatu's waist. It had no advantage except with a [warm] attribute, but it looked quite old and should be a private treasure. The storage bag was still in Yu Xiaozheng. Jiang Feng could prove that Tuobatu was defeated by his own hands. This is the only thing, of course, there were the corpse in the storage bag and the demon pill in Park Tiefeng's hand, but it was not suitable to be taken out in public.
"It's indeed the head of Tuoba."
When Zhou Xing saw the jade pendant, he knew that Tuobatu was indeed killed. A tortuous and light yellow marking on the jade pendant was a proof that this object, which is said to have been passed down for more than a hundred years, Tuobatu has personally displayed it to everyone. Although it is indeed mediocre as a magic weapon, this object is placed in water and is as hiding as nothing, and it is actually the best jade.
“I need time to think about it.”
Zhou Xing did not feel much sad about Tuoba Tu's death. In fact, he had not yet entered the core circle of Hanshan Sect, and Tuoba Tu did not have any kindness to him. In contrast, Matthij, who had always worked with him, was more kind to Tuoba Tu than him. Although Tuoba Tu fell, as a member of the Ma family, Matthij did not need to escape at all. He was usually a very good "demon". He not only relied on all kinds of words and talk, wandered between Tuoba and Ma's family. He knew that Zhou Xing was going to escape with his family, but he did not report it. He also gave him a good escape tool at night.
Why
He sighed in his heart that Matthewji was not more wealthy than him and had more relatives. He might save money on giving this item to himself. In other aspects, he had not changed a decent robe for a long time when he was dating him for several years. What's the use of escaping by himself? If he only had to take care of himself and rely on the irrelevant bones, it seemed that it would take half a year to recover from the irreconcilable bones. If he thought about this, Matthewji had thought it carefully.
"Can this strange bone still be used?" He was thinking, Jiang Feng had already taken out the warmth-proof bone and pushed it in front of him.
"Can you give it back to me?" Zhou Xing couldn't believe it. If he found a suitable buyer, he could sell this alien bone at a high price of ten second-levels, which was almost equivalent to the annual life and cultivation expense of his relatives. In the past six months of growing the alien bone again, it would greatly consume his spiritual energy, and even lead to a decline in his cultivation.
This life-saving technique of alien bones is itself a double-edged sword.
"Of course, whether you join the Asayama Sect or not, this thing can be taken away."
Zhou Xing's hand touched the strange bone. The strange bone seemed to have been separated and found his mother's body. He moved happily, and became soft and hot in his hand, as if he could easily integrate into Zhou Xing's body. However, Zhou Xing decisively took out a piece of linen, quickly wrapped the strange bone, and put it into the bag of spiritual beasts with his own hands. Many years ago, he also sold the strange bones at the risk of his decline in cultivation because of his relatives. Now, it seems like this is going to happen again, he thought.
"A third-level settlement fee will be paid in two years. Consider it."
Jiang Feng knew the price of this strange bone. He had consulted in a nearby store for this purpose. However, on the one hand, ten second-level pieces were not very helpful to Jiang Feng now. On the other hand, he had never obtained such magical things that seemed to be alive. He did not take action with the idea of "staying time to study and research". He did not expect to meet Zhou Xing again today. In order to attract the other party, he naturally wanted to return the original owner.
Zhou Xing rarely borrowed foreign objects in the battle before. Looking at his actions just now, he recalled the situation of the Hanshan Sect, which shows that Zhou Xing and his family were not rich, so Jiang Feng took out the spirit stone and went straight to the other party's weakness. This is the best way to recruit. A third-level is the limit he can take out now. He pays it in two years. It is not to want to tie the other party, but to himself, he is also very poor.
However, unlike Zhou Xing's worries, Jiang Feng was quite confident about the future. Especially when he saw the changes in Dayi County, he once again believed that his previous decision was correct. Although most of the Asan Mountain Sect are still remote and poor, the business opportunities and people gathered here will lead the Asan Mountain Sect to gradually get out of the difficulties. After the Hanshan Sect Dharma Assembly, it seemed that he would continue to invest in spirit stones. His thoughts spread and accidentally got away from it, almost forgot that he was recruiting Zhou Xing.
Turning around, he looked at Zhou Xing. This cultivator with the same combat power as Park Tiexin. Once he joined the Asanyama Sect, perhaps his own cultivator battle formation could be included in the plan. Jiang Feng originally wanted to consider this after the elite children met at the beginning of the year, but because he lacked a suitable leader, he was undecided between Yuexishan and Wei Ruoguang. The former is a different personality than ordinary people and seems to have quirks, while the latter is actually a member of the Wei family's Fuhaimen, and neither is a suitable candidate. If Zhou Xing joined, he might be able to add a replacement option for himself. In the brief confrontation just now, he also saw several young spiritual talents.
They are all good things, Jiang Feng thought to himself, so he silently said in his heart, quickly agree to me, promise me, but his face was calm and he just showed a kind smile.
"We need to think about it." Zhou Xing did not give the answer immediately. He did not say "me", but said "we", and had already given the reason for his hesitation.
…………
Zhenwu City. Xishan area.
In a mansion that is not very generous but has a good location, Yu Xiaozheng was kneeling on the ground, sweating coldly on his face. Sitting on the head was a slightly fat middle-aged monk with a mysterious level of cultivation, with soft lines on his face and no white face. He looked quite stern today. Standing aside and carefully accompanied him was Yu Xiaoman. After learning about the causes and consequences of Yu Xiaozheng Yufeng Sect and his party, he did not dare to hide such a shocking event. He quickly brought Yu Xiaozheng to the fourth uncle Yu Chengrui to carefully state his previous situation and seek a solution.
"You really didn't leak the matter about Changtingjun?"
"Uncle Fourth, I dare not give me a hundred courages." Yu Xiaozheng no longer had the usual playful attitude. He also knew that things were big. Not only did he change into a gray robe that looked very honest, he also knelt down early. If this matter really involved Changting Jun Zhang Tianmo, let alone the Fourth Uncle Fourth, even among the elders of the Yu family, it would probably not be a trivial matter. Of course, he did not know the details. He only knew that the name of "Black Donkey Zhang" was related to Changting Jun, and he could not ask more questions.
"It seems to be a problem for Ling Feidu. I can't make the decision on this matter, so I can only report it to my ancestors and ask him to decide. You cannot leave Zhenwu City until there is a conclusion."
"Yes." The two of them were noisy. Usually Yu Xiaoman could still use the opportunity to communicate with the fourth uncle Yu Chengrui to find some opportunities to ask indirectly. However, looking at the fourth uncle Banzheng's face today, he did not dare to speak again. Yu Xiaozheng was even more arrogant and did not dare to ask. Even Tuobatu's storage bag was confiscated, and he did not dare to ask.
"Nee" The two men did not breathe a long sigh until the fourth uncle Yu Chengrui left the door and the sound of the wildebeest leaving the light hooves.
"Sister, what should I do?" Yu Xiaozheng asked in a low voice while rubbing his somewhat stiff knees. Apart from the New Year's Eve worship of ancestors and asking for a new master to see Li Zong, he had never kneeled for so long.
"Let's wait for the instructions. I originally wanted you to go to Uncle Sixteen to pass the message first, but considering that Uncle Fourth has always been in charge of us, maybe he will have a better effect when he goes to the ancestors. But..."
"But how?" Yu Xiaozheng asked.
"Do you still remember the Zhengqi Alliance token?"
"Of course I remember. Isn't the token there with you?"
"Since the matter started because of Jiang Xiaobai, and he is the head of the Asanyama Sect, this token should allow him to give more benefits, and even the business of Dayi County should be discussed for a long time. These things may alleviate this sin, so we have to go to Uncle Sixteen to discuss it."
"What do you mean?" When talking about the store business, Yu Xiaozheng, who had already become weak, seemed to have forgotten that he was still guilty and became interested again.
…………
Zhou Xing discussed with the older generation in the clan for a long time, but he didn't make up his mind. As the person with the highest cultivation level in the clan, he always puts the interests of the family first. In fact, the clan elders who can speak in the clan respect Zhou Xing very much, although he is only a branch of the clan.
I still have to make an idea and send some people away carefully, and spend all their savings, so that they can go to the southern towns to buy goods. The prices of the supplies there are 30% lower than the newly established Dayi County. After losing their homes, all expenses have to be carefully calculated. In addition to the gray-white serrated bone knife and the low-level robe on him, there are only two magic weapons left in his penniless storage bag, including one of which Matthewji gave him to him for his escape suit.
Do you really want to agree to that Jiang Feng?
The conditions are indeed good, much better than when he was in the Hanshan Sect. Will it be better than this when he went to the Qi Alliance? His heart was full of questions, but no one could give him a suitable answer.
"Class leader, a guest is here." The servant who had been serving outside came to report. Before Zhou Xing could stand up, a familiar voice had already heard outside.
"Brother Ma, why are you here?"
He immediately heard that the voice was Matthewji. At this time, he was wandering and helpless, as if he had been redeemed. Matthewji might have a better idea, so he quickly went out.
