A few days later, after repeated consideration, Qingyun, who thought he was ready, contacted Yingwu without even informing Zhu Xianning, and quietly rushed to Zixia Cave, which he had never set foot on.
"Brother Wu, are we going to go there just like this?"
Before leaving the house, looking at Yingwu, whose hair was much neater than usual, and looking as if he was going on a blind date, the young man felt extremely speechless.
"What are you afraid of? If you go to the cave master's house sneakily, you won't be surprised if you don't get killed on the spot."
Yingwu also had a look of disdain on his face and said:
"We agreed in advance, Brother Yun. For safety reasons, the young master used to have one-way contact with me. I have never called him on my own initiative, so I can't guarantee that he will pay attention to me after I go to Zixia Cave!"
"I know, I know. If it doesn't work out, I'll just find another way out. I won't drag you down."
After saying that, Qingyun also asked curiously:
"By the way, Xiao Wu, why did your young master take the initiative to contact you? Could it be that he asked you to give him a foster care?"
"That's not true. The young master often tinkers with some weird elixirs, and sometimes uses some... um... some forbidden spiritual materials. Naturally, it's not easy to follow Lingdong Master."
"What? A forbidden spiritual material? What is he practicing? Is it some kind of peerless poison elixir?"
As he spoke, Yingwu's face quickly turned red.
"Oh, no, no, Brother Yun, you...you have so much experience, shouldn't you know more than me?"
"What do I know about me?"
Monk Qingyun Zhanger was confused.
Jiangyun Cave is adjacent to Zixia Cave and Hanchan Cave, and is diagonal to Yuquan Cave, so it didn't take them long to easily reach its jurisdiction.
What opened Qingyun's eyes was that the territory of Zixia Cave was like a miniature Kyushu. Disciples from all forces gathered together to keep warm. There were not many cities but there were many "sects", which was very interesting.
For example, Zixiao Sect and Liuyun Sect, the two sects are quite colluding outside, but in Zhijing Cave, the disciples who are studying inside also become friends with each other and form a rope, establishing a medium-sized force.
Qian Zhong, an acquaintance of Qingyun, lived there.
"Xiao Wu, although the cultivation of these disciples is not high, how could the sect allow them to be so cliquey? Wouldn't this make the internal strife more serious?"
"I don't know either. This situation in Zixia Cave has been maintained for at least thousands of years. Students come and go, but those who should become talented are still top-notch, and those who cannot break ground will eventually be buried."
Yingwu spread his hands and bit the thatch in his mouth randomly.
Hearing this, the young master nodded thoughtfully.
What surprised Qingyun next was that Xiao Ma Gan was not unprepared. As soon as he stepped into the territory of Zixia Cave with his front foot, he was thrown a purple jade tablet shaped like a flowing cloud with his back foot.
"Here, Brother Yun, I'll give you a hard time and become my follower."
"Haha, let me tell you, if we step into Zixia Cave so openly, we will be beaten into pig heads by those sect disciples within five steps."
Yingwu chuckled and replaced his disciple's jade medal from Jiangyundong with one from Zixia Cave. God knows how he got it.
"Who made Jiangyundong's reputation get worse and worse? Hey, I can only blame the sect for doing too much business in recent years."
Qingyun smiled faintly after hearing this, and secretly said that your young master would not choose a good place for you to escape, so you would have to stay in Jiangyun Cave.
"So what if the business is big? Then you can't make money by relying on your own restaurant sign?"
"Hey, the sect must also have difficulties. I heard that the spiritual power tide in Kyushu is getting weaker and weaker, and the laws of heaven and earth are becoming more and more chaotic. In many places, even the teleportation array no longer works. I guess the price of spiritual materials has also risen. Zhijing Dongtian In the Naidan Dao Sect, the annual expenditure on materials is astronomical, and the disciples of Jiangyundong are all from major suppliers and dealers, so the profits are probably transferred."
"makes sense."
The young master is not a senior member of the sect, so he doesn't understand how the big guys think about the problem, but even he, a newbie who has been in the sect for less than ten years, knows that the disciples of Zixia Cave hate Jiangyun Cave the most among the other three caves. .
There is no other reason.
In recent years, the number of disciples recruited by Zhijing Dongtian from outside the sect has decreased instead of increasing, while more and more disciples have entered Jiangyundong through trading.
These parallel imports are basically from large and small clans that have trade relations with Zhijing Dongtian, and they are almost useless except for a little bad money at home.
Sending a few so-called "geniuses" to get diplomas and honor their ancestors, Zhijing Dongtian can also take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, which will naturally make the disciples of the outer sect who come in based on their own strength feel resentful.
As for Hanchan Cave, the number of aliens is pitifully small, and although the natives of Yuquan Cave also look down on the waste in Jiangyun Cave, they can't even get together with eight poles, so the people of Zixia Jiangyun No. 2 Cave are The disciple became less and less able to deal with it.
This is also the reason why Li Hongyu and Jiang Yi choked and started taking action before they could even say a few words.
The topic is far off topic.
Qingyun originally thought that not wearing Zixiadong's disciple uniform would attract attention, but unexpectedly there were many monks here who were dressed casually like him.
"This is because the current cave master Ling Shuangyan has a very heroic character and has very loose requirements for his disciples. Except for entering towns and other formal occasions where grooming is required, anyone can dress casually as long as they do not leave the scope of Zixia Cave."
"Have a heroic personality..."
Yingwu's explanation instantly reminded Qingyun of when he asked why no one was willing to take over Jiangyun Cave, he said that the reason given by Ling Shuangyan was that he had a gynecological disease and could not get out of bed.
"This is too 'heroic'."
The two of them teleported all the way. Shoumagan did not take Qingyun into Zixia City, but took a detour to the Ling family's mansion outside the city.
Similar to the Pan family in Yuquan Cave, the Ling family is also a native of Zhijing Cave. However, because Ling Shuangyan is now in charge of Zixia Cave, the Ling family moved here.
But compared to the Pan family's secretiveness, the Ling family seems much more high-profile.
Not only is the mansion very close to Zixia City, but the courtyard is several times larger. Looking from a distance, there is an endless stream of monks coming and going, noisy with carriages and horses, and it is very lively.
"Don't these students have to go to Zixia City to attend classes?"
Qingyun asked curiously.
"They are not students, but the alchemists of the Ling family and the alchemists of Zixia Cave."
"Alchemist?"
"Well, as the representative of the local family, Ling Shuangyan has a great say in Zhijing Cave, so she cannot be regarded as a lonely person leading Zixia City."
"Haha, I didn't expect you, Xiao Wu, to know the forces within the sect very well~"
Although Yingwu said it in a vague way, he was as smart as Qingyun and naturally heard the implication immediately, which also reminded him of the "Chong Family" he had just heard a few days ago.
"Hey, I have followed my master since I was a child, and I have been exposed to many things. No matter how stupid you are, you can still understand some."
"Then Leng Zhaoye of Hanchan Cave and Fan Qingzhou of Yuquan Cave, are the same for the two cave masters?"
"Absolutely right. The master of Leng Cave is from the Kuixing sect, and the Kuixing sect has always made good friends with the demon clan, so it is natural for the sect to arrange for him to be the master of the Hanchan Cave. Fan Qingzhou was originally a veteran alchemist of Xingzhi Palace, and also The master’s confidant.”
At this point, Yingwu will not explain it further.
Due to the endless number of monks and alchemists coming and going, no one paid any attention to these two guys who were already inconspicuous.
But when he got here, Shoumagan obviously put away his deer-headed rat-like habit and became serious. After walking around seven or eight times pretending to be nonchalant, he took Qingyun to a four-corner pavilion outside Ling Mansion for people to rest temporarily.
The pavilion is in a remote location and is surrounded by towering pines and cypresses. Unless one searches with one's spiritual sense, it would be difficult for the naked eye to easily see them through the tree-lined path.
"Have you made an appointment with Master Feng to meet here?"
Hearing this, Yingwu just smiled and shook his head, and immediately used all his strength to rearrange the four stone benches in the pavilion in a certain order, and then a magical scene appeared!
I saw a faint fluorescent light suddenly light up on the stone table in the middle, and then as the light faded, a small flowing cloud pattern slowly appeared on it, which was exactly the same as the Zixia Cave Disciple Jade Tag carried by the two!
Then Yingwu glanced around the outside of the pavilion worriedly for several times. After finally confirming that it was correct, he carefully embedded his jade medal into the flowing cloud pattern on the stone table. In an instant, waves of wonderful fluctuations faintly emanated from it.
"Brother Yun, later on, the news that the young master is still in the door is really very secret. This is also for his safety."
"Isn't it just to get married? It's not going to cost him his life."
Qingyun teased.
"Hehe, if you ask me, if you marry Hua Yumian, it would be better to die."
"Uh, is it that exaggerated?"
"Exaggeration? Brother Yun, you don't know. Youyan always favored you. In the past, in the sect, the leader of the sect was the second in command, and she was the one who controlled the wind and rain..."
In Shou Ma Gan's description, Hua Yumian is simply a murderous villain who eats meat without spitting out bones. Compared with the cute and charming little princess in a gauze skirt in his mind, a chill immediately ran down his spine. Tian Ling Gai.
"Did Brother Feng blind his dog's eyes?"
What makes Qingyun even more speechless is that the story of the little princess's father "Die Lianhua" is well-known to everyone. He himself was a victim of an arranged marriage. How come he turned from a victim to a villain when it came to his daughter?
Just when Yingwu was complaining to Qingyun about Hua Yumian's arrogant past, Qingyun soon noticed a slightly familiar aura approaching quickly towards the pavilion where the two of them were.
"Huh?"
Just as he was still confused, the opponent's speed also suddenly increased, which also made Qingyun further feel the opponent's cultivation level.
Concentrated state!
"Jiang Yi, why is it you?!"
When the opponent walked through the shadows and revealed his figure, Qingyun was surprised to find that the person coming was actually the Zixia Cave disciple who had just fought with him yesterday, Jiang Yi!
Similarly, Jiang Yi's face was also startled when he saw Qingyun. Without saying anything, he saw a cold light like a meteor flashing across his sleeves, and then Qingyun felt a sharp and sharp light like a sword. The spiritual power comes straight towards him!
In his haste, he could not fight back, so he had to grab Yingwu and dodge to the side. When Jiang Yi saw Qingyun holding Yingwu, his offensive suddenly stopped.
Even so, the blow from the monk in the Concentration Realm still cut a huge hole in the surrounding trees. The soaring spiritual light even made Qingyun unable to see clearly what weapon the opponent was using, and only heard him yell:
"Let him go, you bastard, you actually used a junior in the Hundred Meridians Realm as a shield. How can you be a hero!"
