Chapter 63: Meeting with the same people
"Brother, what did you say? This is five hundred spirit stones. You can't let me do things and lose yourself." Zhou Yang immediately took out a bag of spirit stones and gave it to Liu Menglong.
Liu Menglong doesn't want life or death.
"Brother, if you refuse again, you will trap me in a place of dishonesty and righteousness. There is no reason to change what you have said." Zhou Yang said seriously.
"Okay, then I'll accept it." Liu Menglong also admired Zhou Yang's boldness and loyalty.
The two of them left the shop and rode the two green wolves straight towards the Blue Beast Palace.
Arriving at the familiar palace gate, Zhou Yang couldn't help but feel excited. It was the first time for him to enter such a large sect, so he was inevitably a little nervous.
Manager Liu said a few words to the gatekeeper, then handed over Qing Lang and led Zhou Yang into the side door.
After passing through the side door, there is another scene inside.
The Cangshou Palace is indeed well-deserved. The vast area and the number of palaces are the only ones Zhou Yang has ever seen in his life. They are much larger than those of the Tuyan Ziyuan Sect.
After entering the door, you are faced with a majestic spiritual beast statue. This statue is different from the one outside. It looks like a dragon but not a dragon, and looks like a tiger but not a tiger. Zhou Yang didn't recognize it after looking at it for a long time.
Liu Menglong did not introduce him and took him directly to the depths.
The broad bluestone avenue has no end as far as the eye can see, and is lined with tall and precious trees on both sides. Under the trees, there are many exotic flowers and plants, and bursts of fragrance hit your face. Coupled with the rich aura, it makes people relaxed and happy, and extremely comfortable.
Zhou Yang was speechless. If he cultivated here for a long time, his cultivation would progress much faster than outside.
Walking further inside is a densely packed palace complex, each with carved beams and painted buildings, majestic and majestic in its splendor.
From time to time, huge beast roars can be heard from some palaces in the distance. Needless to say, those must be the homes of high-level spiritual beasts.
At this time, there were disciples from Cang Beast Palace coming and going on Qingshi Road, and all of them seemed very busy and ignored their intentions.
The two walked through the palaces, and after a long time they came to a palace made of marble. In the center of the palace were two red-painted doors, covered with gold nails, each shining brightly and dazzling the eyes.
Outside the palace door is a jade platform, under which there are thirty-nine twenty-seven marble steps. The steps are arranged on both sides, with an animal-shaped relief in the middle, extending upwards.
There are three eye-catching characters directly above the palace door: "Lingshi Palace".
It's spiritual food, not spiritual stone.
The two climbed up the stone steps and walked quickly into the palace.
After entering the hall, a disciple from the Cang Beast Palace immediately came forward to question them. Instead of Liu Menglong explaining his purpose, the disciple led them along the corridor of the hall and went straight to a red painted door.
The man asked Liu Menglong and Zhou Yang to wait while he went in to report. After ten breaths, the disciple returned and invited them in again.
The two of them entered the room and saw an old man standing behind the desk, concentrating on thinking. There was a chessboard on the large desk, with black and white interlaced among them.
Zhou Yang's eyes lit up. It was a coincidence that the deacon in charge of spiritual food also fell in love with Yi Dao.
There was a Go chess score on the table. Zhou Yang just glanced at it and understood it clearly. Next to the chessboard, there was a paper document.
Seeing them coming in, the old man woke up from his deep thoughts, raised his head and waved his hands: "Sit down."
"I've met Deacon Cheng." Liu Menglong took the lead in saluting, and Zhou Yang followed suit, then stood aside with his hands down.
"You guys didn't come too late." Deacon Cheng looked at the two of them.
"After receiving the message from your sect, the two of us arrived immediately!" Liu Menglong said hurriedly.
"Um."
Zhou Yang secretly looked at Deacon Cheng behind the desk. He saw that this man was about fifty years old, wearing a square scarf and a green robe. He had a thin face and three short strands of beard under his chin. Although his eyes were not big, they were sharp and seemed to
It's like seeing through people's hearts.
Judging from the aura of this person, he should be a Tianyuan master. Judging from his position, he is at least the third level of Tianyuan, or the middle level. Because cultivators at the deacon level of the sect are generally at this level. And in the late Tianyuan stage,
Or the pinnacle, that is the top level of the sect.
Of course, in ordinary small sects, practitioners in the early and middle stages of Tianyuan can serve as senior leaders of the sect.
At this time, Deacon Cheng was also looking at Zhou Yang.
His cultivation level is much higher than Zhou Yang's, and one can tell at a glance that he is at the third level of the Lingtai.
It is rare to see such a young third-level cultivator of Lingtai. He also observed that although Zhou Yang was young, his behavior was decent and steady, without the impetuousness of a young man at all, and he couldn't help but secretly nodded.
"Haha, let's take a look at the chess game first." Deacon Cheng did not talk about business, but asked Liu Menglong and Zhou Yang to take a look at the chessboard on the table first.
Liu Menglong was stunned for a moment, slightly embarrassed. How could he know this? He was too busy with business and had no time to practice, let alone play chess.
I had no choice but to bow and salute again: "I am stupid and do not know this way. I hope you will forgive me!"
I didn't expect Cheng Deacon to be so good at it. He didn't understand this, so he naturally thought that Zhou Yang didn't know how to do it.
"You don't know this way? Haha, little friend, don't you know Yi skills?" Deacon Cheng turned to Zhou Yang and said.
Zhou Yang was stunned. What did this mean? Did he know that he could play chess? Impossible. This was the first time they had met, and Liu Menglong didn't know the inside story, so naturally he wouldn't tell him in advance. Could it be that he was too advanced to even know how to play chess?
You can tell even if you can play chess?
"The deacon has a keen eye, but this junior does know a little bit about it." Even if people see it, there is no need to hide it.
It was nothing to become a deacon, but Liu Menglong was a little surprised. Zhou Yang was young and had a lot of skills, but he was also proficient in Yi Dao, which made him even more confused about this young man.
"Haha, little friend, let's see how we should deal with this game!" Deacon Cheng chose Zhou Yang because when they first entered the door, he noticed that Zhou Yang's eyes were scanning the chess game, and there were strange fluctuations.
If you don't understand the Tao of chess, you will never react like this.
"Junior dares to say a few random words, please forgive me, Mr. Deacon. If this junior understands correctly, this game should be based on ancient chess records, and it is a game played by two masters, Nai Fan and Shi." Zhou Yang replied with clasped fists.
Cheng Zhi smiled at first, then nodded slightly.
Zhou Yang added: "This game is exquisite and highly praised by future generations. The younger generations have had the honor to watch it and benefited a lot."
"Okay, little friend, since you have seen this score, how about finishing this game with me?" Deacon Cheng was overjoyed and immediately invited him.
"Junior, I obey." Since he was a fellow-traveler, Zhou Yang was not polite.
"Haha, please come first, little friend."
Zhou Yang was ordered to take the lead in black.
If there is no need to guess first, juniors or those who think they are not good at chess will move first with black stones. This is the rule.
If you become a deacon, you will be able to do the right thing.
Because it is the chess record of their predecessors, the two people exchanged information with each other every time they took a step. This is called review.
Just a few simple words shocked Deacon Cheng. Before Zhou Yang and the two came together, he didn't understand the skill of this chess game very well, and he was frowning and thinking hard. But at this time, he listened to Zhou Yang's understanding of this skill.
After thinking about it, I felt suddenly enlightened and enlightened.
This alone proves that Zhou Yang is better than himself in chess.
After that, whenever there was a good idea, the two communicated and confirmed it, and they had a great time talking.
The review of the game lasted for a full two hours before it was completed. Liu Menglong knew nothing about this, but he still had to laugh and watch, which was a kind of torture for him.
"Haha, it's great, it's great! Thank you little friend for clarifying my doubts. If you have free time, you can come to the Blue Beast Palace to see me directly. Don't dare to say anything else. I have enough good wine and meat." Deacon Cheng laughed and said boldly.
.
Originally, he wanted to play a real game of chess with Zhou Yang, but after reviewing the previous games, he knew that Zhou Yang's chess ability was far better than his own, and to play against him again would be to seek abuse.
"Thank you, Mr. Deacon. Now, about this contract..." Zhou Yang hesitated. It has been more than two hours since he entered the Lingshi Palace, and he hasn't mentioned a word about the contract yet.
"Hey, look at my memory, I only care about playing chess. Take a look at this first, and if there is no problem, then sign and pledge it." Deacon Cheng slapped his head, and then handed the paper document beside the chessboard to Zhou Yang.
"Yes." Zhou Yang took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.
There is not much content in the contract, but the main idea is: the supplier will provide at least 600,000 kilograms of spiritual grass and 20,000 elixirs to Cangshou Palace every year. This year, it will provide at least 300,000 kilograms of spiritual grass, and the elixir will be provided from next year. If the supply is
If a person cannot supply goods on time and in full, his or her qualification will be cancelled.
The contract also lists the types and prices of the spiritual herbs and elixirs provided. You can choose one of each, or you can choose a variety of spiritual herbs and elixirs. Then there are some routine clauses that stipulate the obligations and responsibilities of both parties.
Zhou Yang thought to himself: "It turns out that we have to provide 20,000 elixirs. From the price point of view, some of the elixirs are one for one spiritual stone, and some are two or three for one spiritual stone. In this way,
The value of the elixir provided is at least 10,000 to 20,000 spiritual stones. Increasing income is inevitable, but part of the spiritual field must be set aside to grow the elixir, which is more troublesome."
The terms of providing 20,000 elixirs were somewhat different from his previous plan, but it would not affect the overall situation, it would just cost some money.
Zhou Yang did not hesitate and signed his name and fingerprinted the supplier. However, he used Zhou Tian's name. He did not dare to give his real name. Liu Menglong used this to smoothen the matter before.
name.
The signature of Cang Beast Palace is Cheng Yidao, and there is also the seal of Cang Beast Palace Lingshi Palace.
This Cheng Yidao is deacon Cheng. His name is very special. He must be good at using swords and weapons, and he must have deep attainments.
Liu Menglong also signed his name and position as the guarantor.
Somehow, when Zhou Yang looked at Liu Menglong's name, he thought of Mo Chenglong and couldn't help but smile to himself. Literally speaking, Mo Chenglong didn't want to become a dragon, while Liu Menglong dreamed of becoming a dragon. However, the meanings of the two names were completely opposite.
The contract is made in two copies, with Cheng and Zhou Yang each holding one copy, and it will take effect from now on.
"Master Deacon, this is the spiritual stone." Zhou Yang took out a spiritual stone bag and placed it respectfully on the table.
Chapter completed!
