In Zhao Hai's impression, a big family like that must have a very strict hierarchy. It is impossible to suddenly promote you to a very high position just because of a gift.
But looking at Shopkeeper Chen’s promise, it seems that this aspect really isn’t a problem. Is a good gift really that important?
Shopkeeper Chen understood Zhao Hai's eyes, and he smiled bitterly: "Sir, you may not understand that family's way of doing things. From that family's perspective, if you can't even prepare a gift, how can you do it with others?" Business, precisely because of this, this gift is actually a test of a person’s ability, so we have to pay attention to it.”
Zhao Hai also smiled bitterly. He really didn't expect that the family would have such a weird statement, but this also meant that Zhao Hai understood how important the seal was to Shopkeeper Chen. If Shopkeeper Chen really If he takes that impression as a gift, I'm afraid his status will skyrocket immediately.
But Zhao Hai immediately thought of a question. He looked at Shopkeeper Chen and said, "If you got the map from that family, it means that that family has already had that map. With their respect for that seal, If they take it seriously, they will definitely send someone to look for it, but haven’t they found it yet?”
Shopkeeper Chen nodded and said: "Yeah, I haven't found it yet. If someone had found it, I'm afraid they would have taken it out long ago. The family sent many people to look for it at the beginning, but then they couldn't find it. Now they do it every year Some people will still be sent to look for it, but none of them are found. It is precisely because of this that the map is not a particularly secret thing in that family. I can get it now, otherwise I will not be able to get it. map."
Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice: "In other words, looking for the seal this time is just an alternative plan for you. It is purely a matter of luck. You have already prepared other crystal gifts. Is it right?"
Shopkeeper Chen did not hide it from Zhao Hai. He nodded and said: "Yes. In fact, I have prepared that gift a long time ago. This is just an alternative plan. But if you succeed, then my identity and status will immediately It’s different. I can’t help the mine-laying gang just that much. Although I have a few usable monks now, I don’t trust many of them. Those guys are all for money. Who knows what they are doing? Will you sell me just by turning your back, so I need someone who is trustworthy but not noticed by others, and you are the only most suitable person for this person."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Let someone send me the map."
Shopkeeper Chen took out a space bag from his pocket. He opened the space bag and took out a jade slip from it. Then he handed the jade slip to Zhao Haidao: "This is the map. How can I trust someone else with something like this? You can leave at any time, but you must come back within three months. If you If you don’t come back within a month, even if you find the seal, it will be useless, because it will be the master’s birthday in three months, and I can’t give the gift to the master on his birthday, so I will never have the chance. I have met him. The gifts I gave him cannot be delivered to him, and no one knows what will happen in this year. "
Zhao Hai understood what Shopkeeper Chen said. There is no airtight wall in this world. If he cannot deliver the gift to Shopkeeper Chen within three months, then Shopkeeper Chen can only keep the seal in his hand for one year. But if Within this year, someone knows that shopkeeper Chen has this seal in his hand. They will definitely come to snatch it. With the strength of shopkeeper Chen, I am afraid that he will not be able to keep this seal at all, and may even lose his life.
Zhao Hai took the jade slip and said: "Don't worry about when I leave. If I don't come back within three months, there is only one possibility. I died in Jinggui Mountain. If I come back within three months, he , then there is only one possibility, that is, I came back with the seal." After saying that, Zhao Hai stood up, gave the two people a fist, turned and left.
Shopkeeper Chen looked at Zhao Hai's retreating back, took a deep breath, and turned to Liu Wei: "Brother Liu, why do I feel that this guy is not simple? Maybe he is straight and can give me a surprise."
Liu Wei smiled bitterly and said: "I hope too, but I hope even more that he can come back alive. To be honest, even though he usually hides himself very well and acts very low-key, I can be sure that in the mine gang, , no one is his opponent, even if all the people in the Bray Gang come back, they may not be his opponent anymore, he is too strong."
Shopkeeper Chen turned to look at Liu Wei and said, "Where did you find such a person? With his strength, is he willing to stay in the Bray Gang?"
Liu Wei smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't find him, but he came to me on his own initiative. He came from the Righteous Alliance and offended people there. However, I doubt this. But what is certain is that he Definitely not from the Demon Alliance, but from the Evil Cultivator Alliance."
Shopkeeper Chen glanced at Liu Wei in confusion and said, "How can you be so sure that this guy is not from the Demonic Cultivation Alliance or the Evil Cultivation Alliance?"
Liu Wei smiled bitterly, and said with a nostalgic look in his eyes: "It's very simple, because I have been to all three places. Although I was born in the Demon Alliance, I also went to the Righteous Alliance and also to the evil cultivators. I have worked in the Alliance. To be honest, compared to the other two places, it is easier for casual cultivators here in the Demonic Alliance to survive. In the Righteous Alliance, the income of casual cultivators is very small, while in the Evil Alliance, from time to time, There will be some casual cultivators who disappear and are captured by those evil cultivators for experiments or other things, so I finally came back here."
Speaking of this, Liu Wei sighed again and said: "It is precisely because I have worked in these three places that I know very well the training styles of the monks in these three places. The casual cultivators in the evil cultivators, even if they are practicing They practice similar techniques to us, and they also have a hint of cold air on their bodies. However, the casual cultivators here in the Demon Alliance always have a hint of violent air on their bodies, because everyone here has Some are brave and fierce, but in the Righteous Alliance, the casual cultivators have a low-key and restrained spirit. Because the Righteous Alliance has strict management of the casual cultivators, they have to keep a low profile, and Zhao Hai has this kind of low-key and restrained attitude. That’s why I said he came from the Righteous Alliance.”
Shopkeeper Chen nodded and said: "If he really comes from the Righteous Alliance, then things will be easier to handle. By the way, these heavenly beings have come into contact with him, what kind of person do you think he is? "
Liu Wei sighed and said: "A good man."
Shopkeeper Chen didn't expect Liu Wei to give such an answer, but this answer was enough. Shopkeeper Chen nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first. This time I'm here under the pretext of discussing cooperation. I can't stay here for too long, lest others become suspicious."
Liu Wei nodded and said: "Listen to his news. His character will not accept anything casually. If he can really do it, I really hope you can help him and let him If he joins that family, he still has potential. Unlike us, who are basically just hanging around and waiting to die, he is different."
Shopkeeper Chen nodded, turned around and left without saying anything. Liu Wei sent him outside, and the two of them talked and laughed all the way, looking no different from usual.
Zhao Hai returned to the room, put his spiritual power into the jade slip, and carefully looked at the contents of the jade slip. At the same time, he immediately got in touch with Laura and the others.
Now Laura and the others are practicing seriously at Yuanyue Peak every day. They all know very well that Zhao Hai's trial this time will not be too short, but they can still meet every night. Now they will go to the base under Yuanyue Peak every day, and then return to the space from that base, and Zhao Hai will also return to the space every day to train them, although they seem to be separated now. But they never separated.
As soon as they heard Zhao Hai calling them, Laura and the others immediately returned to the room. After closing the door, Cai'er immediately contacted Zhao Hai. Among these women, Cai'er had the closest connection with Zhao Hai. . Cai'er is combined with space, and space belongs to Zhao Hai, so no matter what Zhao Hai uses the space for, Cai'er will know it, and Zhao Hai will be the first to know the news as soon as he gets in touch with Laura and the others through space. , it must be Cai'er.
"Brother Hai, what do you want from us?" Cai'er also knew that if Zhao Hai had nothing to do, he would not contact them during the day, so she asked straight to the point.
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "You will immediately analyze the map I sent to the space. First, you must see if the map is true or false. If it is true, calculate the best route. Second, immediately Just go and find out more about Jinggui Mountain, the more detailed it is, the better.”
Cai'er immediately responded, and then conveyed Zhao Hai's words to Laura. Laura immediately asked Cai'er and the others to analyze the map given by Zhao Hai in the room, but they immediately ran to the utility hall. Ask for information about Spirit Mountain.
In the Righteous Alliance, there is not much news about the Spirit Mountain. After all, the Spirit Mountain is not on the territory of the Righteous Alliance, and the Righteous Alliance will not send disciples to the Spirit Mountain for trials. Therefore, the news about the Spirit Mountain is here in the Righteous Alliance. It's the kind of thing that's relatively remote.
But Cai'er and the others are trying their best to analyze the authenticity of the map. The authenticity of the map is easy to analyze. This mainly depends on looking at some details. You must know that the jade slips Zhao Hai got are not just as simple as a map. There are also very detailed records in it, including some dangerous places in Jinggui Mountain and the places where the young master of the family may go. It is precisely because of this that Cai'er and the others initially judged that the map was genuine. of.
There was no problem with the map, so all that was left was to calculate the route. What Zhao Hai asked Cai'er and the others to calculate this time was not the route he would take to enter the Spirit Mountain, but the route that the young master might take to enter the Spirit Mountain.
Although Zhao Hai didn't know where that family was, he could see from the map that there were only a few routes into the Spirit Mountain, and they were all concentrated in one direction, so he could roughly know the direction of the Kong clan. , so that we can roughly calculate from which direction the young master entered the Spirit Mountain.
This is what Zhao Hai calls preparation work. Although his preparation work may sometimes be useless, after all, the other party has died long ago, and he is not very clear about what kind of person the other party is. , the rough route planned in this way may be wrong, but at least it can provide Zhao Hai with a goal.
There are many routes on the map, but Zhao Hai is very clear. Those routes have been searched countless times. The possibility of finding the seal in those places is very small, so he can only follow his own path. plan to come.
In less than a day, Laura collected all the information about Jinggui Mountain that could be found in Ba Daomen. This time Laura asked many people in the Zaozhutang to help, but those people also Everyone knows that Laura is Zhao Hai’s wife, and as long as Zhao Hai’s strength improves in the future, he will definitely rise to the top. Everyone knows this, and it is precisely because of this that Laura comes to do things. , those people are naturally willing to give the green light.
When Laura asked Cai'er to pass on the situation at Spirit Mountain to Zhao Hai, Zhao Hai couldn't help but feel a headache as soon as he saw the information. Spirit Mountain was really not a good place to go.
This Monster Mountain is really very big. This Monster Mountain is an extremely huge and endless mountainous area. The total area is almost as big as half of China. Now, the area explored by the monks of the True Spirit Realm is only No one knows what the Spirit Mountain is like in the outermost parts of the Spirit Mountain.
This Monster Mountain is so big, there must be a lot of ghosts in it. As far as the monks have explored, there are indeed a lot of ghosts in this Monster Mountain, but there is one thing that makes people feel very strange. The spirits rarely leave the range of the Spirit Mountain. They are like wild beasts that are unwilling to leave their own territory and just guard their own territory.
But the spirits inside are definitely not easy to mess with. Compared with the monsters of the same level outside, the fighting power of the spirits is at least three levels stronger than those monsters. The most important thing is that the fighting instinct of these monsters is a brand new one. If a monk encounters this fighting method for the first time, he will definitely suffer a loss.
The most troublesome thing about the spirits is that they are not afraid of death, but they will run away, but they will hold grudges and attack you constantly. This is the most troublesome thing about the spirits.
In the Spirit Mountain, there are not only various monsters and monsters, but also various plant spirits. These plant spirits can actually be regarded as a kind of monster, but they are different from ordinary monsters. They are much stupider, but their fighting power is definitely not weak, stronger than ordinary monsters, and now Zhao Hai is going to such a place, it can be said that the ground is full of dangers, maybe what you saw last moment It is just an ordinary grass, but the next moment it has become a monster that wants to kill you. (To be continued.)
