Chapter 176: Reluctance to compromise will lead to big trouble!
Latest website:
Master Jiang's possessions were much more than Zhou Chun expected.
Not to mention the more than 24,000 spiritual coins, even the pills he refined were not ordinary.
Among them, there are three types of elixirs that can improve the mana cultivation of monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage. There are four bottles in total, which together are worth tens of thousands of spirit coins.
In addition, among the healing elixirs, there are also several extremely effective elixirs.
Moreover, there are many rare alchemy materials in its storage bag, each of which is of great value.
But the really important things are the alchemy furnace and several commonly used second-level high-grade magic weapons in his storage bag.
That alchemy furnace is a second-level middle-grade magical artifact. The value of this item alone is comparable to a third-order low-grade magical artifact.
Several other second-level high-grade magical instruments are also rare and high-quality items.
But it is a pity that the Zhou family cannot keep these magical artifacts.
Because these things are commonly used by Master Jiang, the Jiang family must have prepared them.
If these things are not handed over, the Jiang family will definitely not easily agree to Zhou Chun's "life and death" solution.
Fortunately, apart from these things that are easy for others to know, the Zhou family should be able to keep most of the elixirs and spiritual coins.
In addition, some classics on alchemy found in Master Jiang’s storage bag, as well as some of his personal experience in alchemy, can be copied and retained for future use.
So Zhou Mingde confiscated 18,000 spiritual coins and put them in the treasury as public property of the Zhou family.
As for those elixirs, Zhou Chun was given two bottles of elixirs for improving his cultivation and some healing elixirs.
The rest will be kept by Zhou Mingde first, and will be rewarded to the foundation-building elders who have contributed to the family at an appropriate time in the future.
As for the wolf-faced monk, Zhou Chun was only willing to take out the scimitar weapon as compensation.
After all, he himself paid a heavy price in that battle, and it was impossible for him to give away all the spoils.
After the division was completed in this way, while the truth of the matter in Lingzhou had not yet been investigated, Zhou Cundang took his things and went to Qinglian Temple.
Speaking of which, Zhou Chun has not come to Qinglian Temple for several years.
In these years, although he still maintained correspondence with Liu Shiyun of Qinglian Temple, and often sent her some specialties of the Zhou family as gifts, he never saw her again.
The most recent contact between the two parties was half a year ago. At that time, Liu Shiyun had just broken through to the twelfth level of Qi Refining Stage. She was very happy in her words and said that her master had prepared the Foundation Establishment Pill for her.
Zhou Chun even wrote back to her to congratulate her.
At this time, after Zhou Chun arrived at the Qinglian Temple, he went to the Yingke Taoist Temple first.
But what was different from the past was that this time he did not need to give any benefits to the receptionist monks inside. He directly brought out the name of Taoist Mingxia and expressed his intention to pay homage to Taoist Mingxia.
Faced with a visit of this level, how could the receiving monk dare to be a little negligent? He immediately warmly invited him to have tea and rest in the upper room, and immediately arranged for a special person to go to Qingshuang Cave Mansion to deliver the message.
Zhou Chun just waited in the room for most of the day, and then saw Liu Shiyun rushing over.
"I haven't seen you for many years. Are you okay with your visit, Daoyou Liu?"
Looking at the female cultivator in Tsing Yi who was still covered by gauze in front of her, Zhou Chun smiled slightly and said hello with a smile.
When Liu Shiyun heard what he said, she looked at his young and handsome face as if it were the first time they met, and then recalled his status as the deputy patriarch of the Zhou family and a monk in the foundation-building period, and she felt filled with emotion.
She couldn't help but whisper: "We haven't seen you for many years, but you still have the same style as fellow Taoist Zhou, which really makes Shiyun envious."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhou Chun's response, he continued: "Master learned that Fellow Taoist Zhou was visiting, and specially sent Shiyun to greet him. She would have to wait for a long time, so we'd better talk while walking."
"Young Daoist Liu is right. We can talk about reminiscing about old times later. It's more important to get down to business first."
Zhou Chun nodded slightly and immediately followed Liu Shiyun out of the room.
When I got outside, I saw a magnificent white fox combing its hair out of boredom.
After seeing the two people coming out, the white-furred fox just glanced at Zhou Chun and then barked "Quack" at Liu Shiyun.
Zhou Chun knew that this white-furred fox was Taoist Mingxia's pet and had been cultivated into a second-level mid-level monster.
For Liu Shiyun to come so quickly, it must have been the white-furred fox who brought her here.
Sure enough, after Liu Shiyun heard the cry of the white-furred fox, she immediately walked forward and sat on its back.
Immediately, the white-furred fox jumped forward, and his body instantly rose into the sky.
When Zhou Chun saw this, he immediately took to the air and followed him.
After flying like this for almost an hour, the two arrived at Taoist Mingxia's cave.
"Junior Zhou Zhengchun, greet senior Mingxia."
In the cave, after Zhou Chun saw Taoist Mingxia again after many years, he immediately went forward to pay homage.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, there is no need to be formal. Sit down and talk."
Taoist Mingxia waved her hand and motioned for him to sit aside.
After Zhou Chun thanked Zhou Chun and sat down, she looked at Zhou Chun and said: "Pindao has already read the letter of Fellow Taoist Mingde, but many details in it have not been mentioned. Can Fellow Daoist Zhou elaborate on it for Pindao?"
?”
"Yes, junior, I obey."
Zhou Chun responded, and immediately explained in detail one by one, starting from the reason for the grudge between himself and Master Jiang, to how to kill Master Jiang later.
Of course, he would never admit that he bought the 800-year-old Chi Jingzhi and deliberately lured Master Jiang to come and kill him. He only said that he bought it to gain benefits from the Li family.
In fact, this was indeed his intention before he discovered Master Jiang.
After listening to what he said, Taoist Mingxia looked at him and was silent for a while.
After pondering like this for a while, she nodded gently to him and said, "If what you said is true, then you are indeed responsible for this matter."
"However, the Jiang family in Lingzhou is no small matter. The family has been rooted in Lingzhou for thousands of years. There are also members of their family in this sect, and Master Jiang is an important member of their family."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If they insist not to accept mediation and must avenge that Master Jiang, there is nothing I can do to force others to do it!"
She and the Zhou family only have a mutually beneficial relationship, which is a complete intersection of interests.
If it's just this relationship, of course she won't go all out to do something for the Zhou family, unless the Zhou family gives a lot!
Zhou Chun knew this very well.
Therefore, Dang Ji said: "Senior, just try your best. No matter whether you succeed or not, your kindness will be remembered by this junior and the Zhou family."
But Taoist Mingxia suddenly looked at him and asked: "I want to ask, if there is a life-and-death fight, how sure can Fellow Taoist Zhou be that he will win?"
Zhou Chun didn't know why she asked this, but still replied: "This junior is practicing fighting methods, and his spiritual pet is also a second-level monster. If there is a life and death fight, this junior should be 70% sure to win!"
"A 70% certainty is really not low!"
Taoist Mingxia nodded slightly, and then fell silent again.
After an unknown amount of time passed like this, she looked at Zhou Chun and said: "Then I will personally go to the Jiang family in Lingzhou to see if they are willing to accept a life and death fight. Don't rush home yet.
Just wait for Pindao to return in this cave!"
"Junior, please obey your orders. I will leave everything to my seniors."
After Zhou Chun finished speaking, he immediately stood up and bowed deeply.
Next, Taoist Mingxia just gave a few instructions to his disciples and left the cave directly.
Zhou Chun also received warm hospitality from Liu Shiyun and his daughter.
"To say that practicing here at Qinglian Temple, everything is fine, but sometimes I get so depressed when I have free time that it is difficult to go out, and there are not many Taoist friends with similar temperaments to drink and have fun with!"
"After Shiyun succeeds in building the foundation, Lao Liu, I'm going to go out and find a safer place to live alone, and enjoy the remaining decades of my life!"
At the wine table, after three rounds of dishes, Liu Qingshan, who had already grown white hair, suddenly looked at Zhou Chun with emotion and lamented his current life.
Although he, a relative of the disciples of the inner sect of Qinglian Temple, can be allowed to practice inside the mountain sect.
But if you want to walk in and out of the mountain gate, you must be accompanied by relatives.
This alone makes it very inconvenient for them to come in and out, so they try to minimize their comings and goings.
If it were those monks who stayed with each other in pairs, they might still have each other's companions and be able to stay alone in a cave for a long time.
But Liu Qingshan was alone. Apparently he was tired of it after staying there for more than ten years.
Of course, the most important thing is that his cultivation has already reached the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage. Even meditation and practice will have no effect, and it is impossible to obtain foundation-building spiritual objects to build his foundation.
And his daughter has a bright future and doesn't need any more care or help from him.
It can be said that the meaning of continuing to practice for the rest of my life has been lost.
So it's not surprising that Zhou Chun would feel this way now.
He immediately said with a smile: "Brother Liu, if you really feel that Qinglianguan is too busy and want to go out and have fun, you can go to our Zhou family home."
"My younger brother doesn't want me to do any guarding duties for the Zhou family. As long as I can serve as a mentor to the younger monks of my Zhou family in my spare time, teaching them how to survive in the world of immortality."
.”
Hearing his words, Liu Qingshan's eyes lit up, and he immediately responded: "Then let's make an agreement. After Shiyun succeeds in building the foundation, I will go to the Zhou family to join you, fellow Taoist Zhou."
"Hahaha, I will be waiting for Brother Liu at Zhou's house at a certain time that week."
Zhou Chun laughed, raised his glass and touched it with him again, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
After such a meal, when Liu Shiyun made tea for the two of them to sober up, Zhou Chun looked at her and said, "Speaking of which, Zhou has a small matter here that he would like to ask Fellow Daoist Liu for help."
"What is it? Fellow Daoist Zhou just said it doesn't matter."
Liu Shiyun was stunned for a moment, and then agreed readily.
"It's like this. Zhou Mou heard that Fellow Daoist Liu said that Fellow Daoist Sister is a skilled craftsman and is good at making robes. It happened that Zhou got a good piece of leather a while ago and wanted to ask Fellow Daoist Liu for help.
Senior sister made cassocks."
Zhou Chun said as he took out the mutated gold-eating rat king fur from his collection.
"This is the fur of a second-level monster!"
Liu Qingshan on the side just glanced at the fur in Zhou Chun's hand, and then spoke in surprise.
"It's the fur of the second-level monster mutated gold-eating rat king."
Zhou Chun nodded, then looked at Liu Shiyun.
Under his gaze, Liu Shiyun said without hesitation: "This is a trivial matter. It just so happens that senior sister is practicing in the cave right now. Shiyun will help fellow Taoist Zhou deliver the things to senior sister. She will definitely be willing to help Shiyun
This one is busy."
"Then thank you Daoyou Liu."
A smile flashed across Zhou Chun's face, and he immediately handed the mutated gold-eating rat king's fur to Liu Shiyun.
And Liu Shiyun did go to find her senior sister very quickly.
Less than an hour passed in this way. She returned to her residence and smiled at Zhou Chun who was waiting here: "Third Senior Sister said that the materials this time are very good. She needs to think carefully about what to do. Maybe Zhou Daoyou has to do it."
It will take two or three months to receive the cassock."
"Zhou understands. Thank you again, Fellow Daoist Liu, for your help."
Zhou Chun nodded and thanked him again.
After he stayed in Qingshuang Cave Mansion for two days, Taoist Mingxia, who had gone to Lingzhou, came back.
But when Zhou Chun saw her in Taoist Mingxia's cave, his heart sank.
Because the frown on her face didn't look like she was successful at all.
Sure enough, before Zhou Chun saluted and asked about the situation, Taoist Mingxia shook his head at him and said proactively: "I'm really sorry, Pindao has tried his best, but the Jiang family doesn't want to accept the solution of life and death.
He also said that he will definitely investigate to the end!"
"Furthermore, Pindao also learned from the Jiang family about the other late-stage foundation-building monk who was killed by fellow Daoist Zhou. That person also had a good background. He was a member of Tianjing Villa, a loose cultivator organization in Lingzhou, and his teacher was...
The registered disciples of Tianjing Sanren will probably be in more trouble than the Jiang family!"
What? The monk with the wolf face mask still has such an origin?
Zhou Chun's face was startled, and he couldn't help but have a look of panic in his eyes.
Tianjing Sanren is a famous Jindan monk throughout Jingguo, and he is also a late Jindan monk.
Such an existence is definitely not something the Zhou family can afford to offend.
And Zhou Chun has not forgotten that the "Qiyun Alliance", the Lanzhou loose cultivator organization that was defeated by the five major cultivating families, was formed by Tang Yuan, the registered disciple of the Tianjing San cultivator.
If the master of the wolf-faced mask monk is really traced to the Zhou family, the old and new grudges will add up, and the Zhou family will be really in danger!
"How could it be like this? How could it be like this!"
Zhou Chun murmured to himself, already losing his bearings.
It doesn't matter that the Jiang family refuses to give up. The Zhou family has Zhou Daoyi's Green Jiao, so they are not afraid of them.
But if Tianjing Villa also takes action against the Zhou family, even if Tianjing Sanren, a Golden Core monk, does not take action, the Zhou family will not be able to resist.
Both Android and Apple are available.】
If he really gets to that point, he will really become a sinner of the Zhou family!
How could he not panic?
And just when Zhou Chun was horrified by the news revealed by Taoist Mingxia and didn't know what to do, Taoist Mingxia looked at him and spoke again.
"If Fellow Daoist Zhou has no other way to resolve this calamity, Pindao actually has a way to help Fellow Daoist and the Zhou family survive this calamity safely, and to ensure that the Jiang family and Tianjing Villa will not pursue the case again in the future!"
Is there anything she can do?
Zhou Chun was shocked, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw. He hurriedly bowed to Taoist Mingxia and said, "Senior, please teach me!"
Unexpectedly, Taoist Mingxia waved his hand and said: "Fellow Taoist Zhou, don't be too quick to be happy. Although Pindao's method can help Taoist Taoist and the Zhou family survive this disaster safely, it is extremely dangerous for Taoist Zhou himself. In the end, it will be extremely dangerous for Taoist Taoist Zhou."
Don’t do it according to this method, fellow Taoist, you have to think carefully before doing it!”
But even though she said this, Zhou Chun couldn't hide his joy and hurriedly responded: "Yes, I am all ears to listen to the teachings of my seniors, and I also ask my seniors to teach me."
"This matter is a secret of our sect that will not be spread outside. You, Daoyou Zhou, will listen to what you heard today. Don't talk nonsense after you go out, so as not to bring about the disaster of annihilation for yourself and the Zhou family."
Taoist Mingxia first warned Zhou Chun, and then slowly told her own solution.
