After Xie Yuntian finished handling the treatment and subsequent rewards for some of the disciples who were injured in the war, he was about to go back to rest when a disciple came in to report that it was Chu Zuoshu and Fu Huakun from Shanshan Hall who came to visit.
"You two are here just in time. I need your help as a reward for the disciples of my sword training club who are going on an expedition."
All expenditures such as spiritual stones, elixirs, magical weapons, etc. among the three halls and twelve departments need to go through the Shanshan Hall. This department is in charge of the financial power of the sect.
Xie Yuntian wanted to get more spiritual stones for the disciples in his department, but he could only hand over this amount, and it still needed to be stamped by the leader.
Then the approval documents from the Shenmu Palace were sent to the Sword Training Department and Shanshan Shanshan Hall respectively, and then the former sent people to Shanshanshan Shanshan. After the two documents were verified to be consistent, they received the corresponding number of spiritual stones and material rewards.
Of course, the key to this is the approval of the head, but the attitude of Shanshan Hall is also very important. After all, finances can be deducted a little bit, and the reasons are easy to find.
So this will test the relationship between various ministries and Shanshan Hall.
Xie Yuntian's relationship with Chu Zuoshu was average, but he had a good friendship with Fu Huakun. Both of them were inspectors of the Punishment Hall, and both were direct descendants of Patriarch Fu.
In the past, through this relationship, the Sword Training Department rarely deducted spiritual stone materials.
"Thank you, junior brother, you are also a busy man, so I will tell you directly. The two of us came here today to discuss the matter of Qingmu Sha with you."
Fu Huakun looked at the list of spiritual stones and rewards drawn up by Xie Yuntian for the disciples of the Sword Training Department who went out to the expedition, handed it to Chu Zuoshu beside him, and then got down to business.
He knew Xie Yuntian's character well, so he didn't beat around the bush.
"Qingmu Sha? My Qingyang Fire is about to be completed. If I can condense it, I can control invincible opponents below the Golden Core and serve the sect better. I think there is no problem in leaving it to me."
When Xie Yuntian heard this, he frowned and finally understood why Chu Zuoshu would follow him. However, since it was related to his own path, he would definitely not give in simply.
"Thank you, junior brother. Uncle Mo has only condensed fifteen Qingyan Sword Evils, and the sect's Qingmu Evil now has twenty-one. It's a bit unjustifiable for you to occupy them all."
Chu Zuoshu placed the reward list from the Sword Training Department on the table, and then said something softly, which not only expressed his attitude, but also left room for Xie Yuntian.
Xie Yuntian: "There is a possibility of failure in condensing the sword evil. The purpose of setting aside a few steps is to ensure that I can truly perfect the perfect sword evil. After all, the sect may be at war with other Eastern Wilderness sects at any time. I think the priority is to ensure that I can complete the sword evil.
It is better for one person than to spread the Qingmu Sha among two people."
Fu Huakun: "Thank you, junior brother, haven't you yet purified and sublimated the Qingyang Fire? Moreover, it will take at least ten or twenty years for you to complete the foundation building. Now you can only condense twelve sword evil spirits.
We still need to leave some appropriately for the younger generation. How about this, we only let Lingbao Pavilion have five green wood evil spirits, and leave sixteen for you?"
Hearing this, Xie Yuntian frowned. In the later stage of foundation building, he can condense up to twelve sword evils at most. He is at this level now. Even if he sublimates the Qingyang fire, he will not need the amount of twenty-one green wood evils.
However, people are greedy, and if they have more evil spirits, they will naturally have more confidence when practicing.
If it were anyone else, Xie Yuntian would definitely ignore it and just show his face.
But the two people in front of me were different.
Chu Zuoshu is the master of the Hall of Rewarding Goodness and the future leader. He could have forced Lingbao Pavilion to list Qingmu Sha and then asked Chen Mobai to redeem it. However, Chu Zuoshu still invited Fu Huakun to discuss with him.
It was considered as giving him enough face.
Moreover, he has already left enough power for the sword to be perfect.
If he continues to be ignorant, I am afraid that not only will he hate the future leader, but his relationship with Fu Huakun will also fade in the future.
Among them, what Xie Yuntian doesn't understand the most is why Fu Huakun is willing to stand up for a younger disciple?
"Thank you, Junior Brother. When we were rolling Thunder Mountain, Patriarch Fu, who was always strict, was full of praise for Junior Brother Chen. Moreover, with Junior Brother Chen's talent, there is great hope of forming a pill. It is better to give favors to others than to make grudges. Are you right?
?”
Just when Xie Yuntian was thinking, Fu Huakun's voice transmission suddenly came to his ears. After hearing this, he was shocked.
As Fu Huakun, there was no need to lie to him.
To put it this way, Chen Guixian has already fallen into the eyes of Ancestor Fu.
When I think about this man who is less than 30 years old and has already mastered sword light, as long as he doesn't die, his future achievements will indeed be limitless.
"Let me think about it."
Hearing Xie Yuntian's words of no direct rejection, Chu Zuoshu and Fu Huakun looked at each other and smiled, knowing that the matter was basically settled.
"I happen to be going to the Shenmu Palace. Let me hand this list over to the headmaster for you."
Chu Zuoshu picked up the list of rewards from Xie Yuntian on the table for the disciples of the Sword Training Department who went out for the expedition, and left first.
Fu Huakun stayed for a while, told Xie Yuntian some things about Patriarch Fu, and finally left with satisfaction.
…
Xiaonanshan.
On this day, Chen Mobai and Zhuo Ming were observing the hybrid rice sown in spring.
Some of them are harvested twice a year, and you can already observe the adaptability of the finished product.
"You can focus on these five types for follow-up. After harvesting the rest, you can use them to make wine."
After Chen Mobai read all the spiritual rice, he determined that the adaptability of the five hybrid spiritual rice to the second-level earth energy was within the feasibility range, and asked Zhuo Ming to note it down.
As for those who make wine, they are failures cultivated by Polygonatum odorifera rice.
In recent years, Zhuo Ming would use the spiritual rice grown in the Xiaonan Mountains to make wine, except for what was paid to the sect, because the price of selling the spiritual rice alone was too low, and it was not as popular as Bigu Pill.
Thanks to the excellent koji brought by Chen Mobai from his hometown, the brews are all quite good, with different flavors, and combined with various medicinal materials, it is now considered a unique flavor of Shenmu City.
When it comes to Xiaonan Shanpu, even those in the sect who are devoted to ascetic cultivation know that the wine from this wine shop is very good.
At this time, a girl dressed in a white palace, with a slender waist, graceful figure, delicate face but slightly pale, walked over.
"Meet the Master."
Chen Mobai was a little surprised when he saw Luo Yixuan. Although his young apprentice had little effect on her due to the lamp-burning technique, the Poisonous Gas of the Pulse-Breaking Pearl had little effect on her, but she still lost some vitality. After returning to the mountain, he asked her and
Liu Wenbai always focused on recuperating from his injuries.
"Didn't I let you rest, why did you come here again?"
"Lingbao Pavilion has launched five green wood evil spirits. Master, you asked me to pay attention to it before. I rushed over as soon as I got the news."
Hearing this, Chen Mobai's face lit up with joy. Chu Zuoshu was worthy of being the master of the Hall of Rewarding Goodness, and as the next head, he actually got things done.
"Ming'er, prepare some good wine. I will go and thank Master Chu."
Although Zhuo Ming didn't know why Chen Mobai was so happy, he still obediently went to the wine cellar and took a small jar of precious second-order spiritual wine and five jars of first-order spiritual wine of different varieties.
Luo Yixuan took the wine and flew to Shenmu City with Chen Mobai.
Lingbao Pavilion.
Chen Mobai showed his sect nameplate, and a familiar foundation-building monk came out.
This person's name is Chen Zhenwu, and he is also one of the supervisors of Shanshan Shan. On the previous battlefield at Rolling Thunder Mountain, Chen Mobai and he assisted Chu Zuoshu in practicing the Eight Gates Qingguang Formation. Because the two had the same last name, they chatted a few times.
.
"Junior Brother Chen, it's really great to see you again in the sect."
Chen Zhenwu is also one of the rotating deacons and elders of Lingbao Pavilion. He is on duty this month. If there are precious items such as Foundation Establishment Pills to be redeemed, he needs to handle them personally.
Chen Mobai was not in a hurry to redeem the Green Wood Fiend. Since Chu Zuoshu had made arrangements, the items were on the shelves, and the person who could handle the exchange procedures was in front of him, it meant that these five Green Wood Fiends were for him.
There were many qi-training disciples in the main hall, and when they saw the two foundation-building elders, they couldn't help but show respect.
"Junior brother Chen, let's talk inside."
Chen Zhenwu took Master Chen Mobai and his apprentice into a compartment on the second floor of Lingbao Pavilion, where a pot of tea had already been brewed.
"Although Qingmu Sha exists in the sect, it has always been regarded as a forbidden object by the Sword Training Department, so it has not been put on the shelves in Lingbao Pavilion to avoid being exchanged for it. For this matter, Palace Master Chu specially found
With Inspector Fu as a matchmaker, the two invited Minister Xie to tea and made peace with him again and again before he reluctantly agreed to give up Wudao. Junior Brother Chen must remember this favor."
In fact, Chen Zhenwu was not Chu Zuoshu, he was a direct descendant of Fu Huakun, the inspector of Shangshan Hall.
After Chu Zuoshu was determined to be the head of the palace, the position of the master of Shanshan Hall naturally became the target of interested people.
The most likely ones are Luo Xueer, the deputy palace master, and Fu Huakun, the inspector.
Among them, Fu Huakun has Fu Laozu behind him, but his qualifications are not as deep as Luo Xueer's.
Luo Xueer was born in the Shenmu Temple and is a direct descendant of the leader. She has also served as the inspector of the Alchemy Department and the Minister of the Spiritual Planting Department, and has a wide network of contacts.
However, it is not over yet on the frontal battlefield, and the two of them are very restrained, and they are only secretly trying to win over key people who can vote.
Chen Mobai, as one of the supervisors of Shanshan Hall, also holds one vote.
"Inspector Fu also stood up for me on the battlefield of Rolling Thunder Mountain, so my heart was naturally inclined towards him."
Although it was Chen Mobai who faced Mu Hanxiong in the end, he must remember this favor.
And if Fu Huakun really helped with the Qingmu Sha matter, then Chen Mobai would support him even more.
Although Luo Xueer has a higher chance of taking over the Shanshan Temple, in terms of politics, even if her position is wrong, she cannot leave the impression of being mean and unkind.
Chen Zhenwu talked about the key to this matter.
As the head of the Sword Training Department, Xie Yuntian has a vague prestige as the head of the Twelve Departments due to his strong combat power. However, although he has also practiced Sword Light, the other key to condensing the sword evil, Qingyang Fire, has never been available.
Integration completed.
The Qingyang Fire Seeds that the sect had put on the shelves in recent decades were all redeemed by Xie Yuntian.
As the only sword cultivator in the sect who had mastered sword light before Chen Mobai, it was only a matter of time before Xie Yuntian achieved the mastery of Qingyang Fire. He wanted to monopolize this Qingmu Sha, and no one would deny him face.
It is precisely because of this that Qingmu Sha has never been listed in Lingbao Pavilion, and it has been assumed that it belongs to Xie Yuntian.
Yue Zutao also reminded this matter before.
If it weren't for Chen Mobai who is now a direct descendant of Chu Zuoshu, and has a bright future, and is the genius most likely to form an elixir among the next generation, if it were any other person, Chu Zuoshu would just pretend that he didn't know, and let Chen Mobai himself
Find a way.
But even so, Chu Zuoshu dragged Fu Huakun along to find Xie Yuntian.
The Sword Training Department is under the command of the Palace of Punishing Evil, and the master of the Palace of Punishing Evil is Old Ancestor Fu. Even if Xie Yuntian doesn't give face to Chu Zuoshu, he still wants to give face to Old Ancestor Fu.
When he was in Rolling Thunder Mountain, Fu Huakun personally heard Patriarch Fu's praise for Chen Mobai, and it was precisely because of this that he was willing to come forward.
After his persuasion, Xie Yuntian finally agreed to the matter.
Then he informed Lingbao Pavilion to put Aokisha on the shelves.
Before it was put on the shelves, Chen Zhenwu, the rotating elder, was naturally notified in advance to avoid being redeemed by other people in the sect.
"Every Qingmu Sha has a sect contribution of 1,000, junior brother is ready."
After drinking tea, Chen Mobai also offered to exchange it for Qingmusha. Chen Zhenwu smiled and accepted his sect nameplate. After taking a look at the number on it, he was a little shocked and deducted 5,000 points.
Chen Mobai felt a little strange when he heard Chen Zhenwu's words. After looking at it himself, his eyes widened.
After deducting the sect's contribution in exchange for Qingmuzha, there is still a balance of 16,950 points.
"Ming'er has taken good care of the spiritual field in Xiaonan Mountain in the past two years. I didn't even know that I had made so many contributions to the sect."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After thinking about it for a while, Chen Mobai knew what was going on, but he still felt strange.
Sixty acres of spiritual fields in Xiaonan Mountain are used to grow Yuzhu spiritual rice and test various hybrid spiritual rice. Among them, only six acres of the spiritual fields are of the first level because the spiritual energy is thin, so they can be planted with Yuzhu spiritual rice to supply to the sect.
Even if the yield per mu is 200 kilograms, the maximum sect contribution in these three years is only 3,600 points.
Coupled with what Chen Mobai had saved before and the 1,000 guaranteed contribution points that the sect distributed to each expeditionary foundation-building monk during this war, according to his estimation, it could be exchanged for five green wood evil spirits.
But he didn't expect that his sect account had already made so many contributions of more than 20,000 points without even realizing it.
"Master, in addition to the spiritual field in Xiaonan Mountain, Senior Sister Zhuo is also taking care of the spiritual field in Xiaoyangling. She hired several sect disciples to take care of it there. Last year, I was taken by her to rain and fertilize."
Luo Yixuan on the side saw Chen Mobai's expression of confusion, and when Chen Zhenwu went down to get the Qingmu Sha, she immediately came over and told him the reason.
"Didn't the Spiritual Planting Department in that place take back the spiritual fields?"
Chen Mobai was very surprised when he heard this.
Logically speaking, after he moved to Xiaonan Mountain, the Xiaoyangling Sect that was his territory before should be taken back and distributed to the remaining sect disciples.
"Inspector Sun of the Spiritual Planting Department assigned the spiritual veins of Xiaoyangling, along with the surrounding two acres of medicinal fields and twenty-six acres of spiritual fields, to Senior Sister Zhuo. In name, it is now Senior Sister who has received the task of taking care of Xiaoyangling's spiritual fields.
, but the harvest every year is recorded in your name."
Chen Mobai really didn't know about this matter, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood the reason.
There are many spiritual fields in Jumuling, but there are very few disciples cultivating spiritual rice. The Xiaonanshan lineage is considered the leading spiritual rice planting expert in Shenmu Sect. After Chen Mobai left, if the spiritual fields he opened up in Xiaoyang Ridge were replaced by
If other sect disciples come to work, they will definitely be wasted and delayed.
So Sun Gaochang simply gave it to his apprentice. The child Zhuo Ming probably also wanted to fulfill his filial piety. She might have feelings for the place in Xiaoyangling. After all, she followed Chen Mobai before he established the foundation.
There he learned to sow seeds, make rainfall, eliminate insects, and harvest spiritual rice.
So without Chen Mobai's knowledge, the harvest from the two acres of medicinal fields and twenty-six acres of spiritual fields in Xiaoyangling were recorded in his account.
After three years, I already had so many before I knew it.
It is enough to exchange for the Foundation Building Pill.
This apprentice is so considerate and sensible.
Although her mouth is not as sweet as Luo Yixuan's, she is a practical person and should focus on cultivating her in the future.
Chen Mobai felt that his pain for Zhuo Ming was not in vain. He went out this time and brought her back the Nine Ren Body and the Earth Master's inheritance book.
"Junior Brother Chen, these are five green wood evil spirits. Please check them."
At this time, Chen Zhenwu came out, carrying a wooden tray with five jade bottles on it, each with a talisman affixed to seal the mouth.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chen. I have to go to Chu Zuoshu and Inspector Fu to express my thanks, so I will take my leave first."
After Chen Mobai confirmed that there was no problem, he put the five green wood evil spirits into his storage bag.
"Then I'll send it to you."
Chen Zhenwu smiled and sent Master Chen Mobai and his apprentice downstairs, but just as they were going downstairs, they saw an unexpected person.
"I want to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill."
Mu Yuan stood at the door, his usually indifferent expression slightly fluctuating. After all, it was about the path of his life, and even he had some mood swings.
"I also want to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill."
Two more words in unison came from outside the door, and Yulian and Li Yixian from the Puppet Department walked in.
"The Foundation Establishment Pill will not be available until tomorrow. You guys are early."
Chen Zhenwu shook his head helplessly and came out to talk to Mu Yuan and the others.
When Chen Mobai saw the three people standing in the main hall of Lingbao Pavilion, seemingly planning to wait until tomorrow morning, Chen Mobai felt a slight movement in his heart and walked over with a smile.
"Master Yu, I have been in Shenmu City these days. If you have redeemed the Foundation Establishment Pill and are free, you can come to me. I have some experience in Foundation Establishment. Although it may not be as good as my predecessors, I can still
Let you avoid going astray."
When Yu Lian heard Chen Mobai's words, his expression moved slightly, and he immediately solemnly thanked him.
"Thank you, Uncle Chen. I will definitely come."
Mu Yuan and Li Yixian on the side listened with different expressions.
Li Yixian, in particular, scratched his head and ears, as if he also wanted to come and listen to the lecture. But here in Tianhe Realm, these things are particularly taboo. If Chen Mobai didn't invite him, he would never dare to bring it up, otherwise
It will be seen as someone trying to steal lessons.
Mu Yuan's expression remained unchanged, but Chen Mobai still saw some entanglement in his eyes, which seemed to be longing and a little hesitant.
After all, it was because of Chen Mobai's success that they also attached great importance to the Monster Foundation Establishment Pill.
As the only monk who has successfully built a foundation by taking the Demonic Beast Foundation Establishment Pill in recent decades, Chen Mobai's experience must be a guiding light for them.
But Li Yixian didn't dare to mention it, let alone Mu Yuan, who had fought against Chen Mobai twice before in the sect competition and thought he had a grudge.
Luo Yixuan, who had followed Chen Mobai out of Lingbao Pavilion, saw the expressions of Mu Yuan and the others, frowning and thinking hard. She was carefully speculating on the hidden meaning of the master's words, and she was silently thinking and studying.
Next, she followed Chen Mobai to visit Chu Zuoshu and Fu Huakun to express her gratitude for Qingmu Sha.
The two of them happened to be together, so the three of them opened the good wine that Chen Mobai brought over and drank to their heart's content.
While Luo Yixuan was pouring wine, she carefully memorized every word of the three sect leaders.
This is her way of survival that is very different from Zhuo Ming's.
