Looking at Hao Zelong suspiciously, Monk Xu Wenzhanger was confused and didn't know what the other party had done.
They had actually met each other from afar. Hao Zelong appeared to be smiling and treating everyone politely, but in fact he was a arrogant and arrogant person who didn't take others seriously at all.
No matter what his plans were, whether they were good or bad for him, Xu Wen didn't want to get too entangled with him at all.
After politely refusing, he took his things and left, leaving behind five hundred low-grade spiritual stones for Chi Laowu and others to recover from their injuries and rebuild their houses.
Looking at Xu Wen's retreating figure, Hao Zelong suddenly turned around, bowed to Yao Bihua and said in a deep voice:
"I also ask the real person to help me. If I get what I want, I will treat the real person's descendants favorably for three hundred years. If I violate this oath, I would rather the great road abandon me and never enter the road of the great road forever!"
Unexpectedly, Hao Zelong took this matter so seriously, and Yao Bihua's face became much more serious.
After thinking about it, she pointed in the direction of Xu Wen and asked in a low voice:
"Are you sure, that boy..."
Hao Zelong stood up, closed his eyes and carefully thought about the situation at that time, then suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of light, and he said seriously
"I'm pretty sure that I knew Xu Wen a long time ago. He was just ordinary at that time and definitely didn't have the aura he has today."
"You know, our family is very sensitive in that regard and will never go wrong. If we can get it back..."
Having said this, he seemed to have some scruples. He stopped talking and paced back and forth in the hall, his expression becoming more and more excited.
"how do you want to do it?"
After thinking for a moment, Yao Bihua asked in a low voice.
Hao Zelong was overjoyed when he heard this, and Yao Bihua obviously agreed to this.
This matter involves the family, and no one from Feilong Trading Company can be trusted, so external help must be used.
Although Yao Bihua is old, he is still Jindan Zhenren. As long as he has not reached the stage of greatness, his strength cannot be underestimated.
After thinking for a moment, Hao Ze Longcheng said in a deep voice:
"This matter is of great importance. We cannot rush it. We must take care of it slowly."
"First of all, we must make good friends with Xu Wen. No matter whether he is true or false, success or failure, with his methods and abilities, his future achievements will never be inferior to those of ordinary Jindan Masters. There is absolutely no harm in making friends with him!"
"To befriend him, now is the best opportunity. Although his magic power is strong, Liuyun Valley is even more crowded with people. With his little power..."
Having said this, Hao Zelong shook his head repeatedly, appearing very disapproving, and continued:
"It will be extremely difficult to rescue our comrade. Now we take action. Regardless of whether he is willing or not, he must accept our favor!"
After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he continued:
"I don't think he is willing to be mediocre, otherwise he wouldn't be able to run that small trading company. Let's work together at the commercial level to help them, support them, and strengthen them so that they can't do without us."
"When the time comes, let alone him, even the people around him will force him to cooperate with us."
"When the time is right, I will raise that matter again. This is a good thing that benefits both parties. He has no reason to refuse!"
Yao Bihua thought carefully for a while, and even with her hundreds of years of experience as a real Jin Dan, she had to admit that this was the best way, and she couldn't think of anything better.
Of course, all of this is based on Xu Wen's strong magic power and extensive background.
Otherwise, Hao Zelong would not be so patient, but would capture him on the spot and ask him everything he wanted to know.
Not knowing the other party's plan, Xu Wen returned to Xiuning Ji, told Hai Zhenzhu the whole story, arranged some things, and quietly left for Yunlan City ten days later.
Hai Zhenzhu originally wanted to go with him, but the focus of this operation was to take things by surprise and to leave quickly and get back quickly. Hai Zhenzhu's going might not be effective.
After some discussion, it was decided that Xu Wen would go alone.
During this period, Liu Minghe was in charge of the business in Liuyun Valley, but the Immortal City and Yunlan City where he was located were no longer in the same direction, and they were separated to the east and west of the mountain gate of Liuyun Valley.
They were far apart and it was inconvenient to send messages, so they were not informed.
After leaving Jietian City, Xu Wen fled quickly at high altitude. Within the scope of Bazhou Mountain's influence, he didn't have to worry too much.
When he arrived near Simian Mountain, he lowered his escape light, bypassed Simian Mountain from hundreds of miles away, and silently traveled thousands of miles westward, gradually entering Liuyun Valley's sphere of influence.
After gathering his aura and changing his appearance, Xu Wen continued to head west quickly.
In the early stage of foundation building, he had a bad fight with several sects in Liuyun Valley and killed many of them.
Although it was almost a hundred years ago, a cultivator has a long memory, and he didn't want to be recognized halfway, and as a result, he failed to save Hai Coral, and even got himself into trouble.
Staying day and night, carefully avoiding the crowds, we finally arrived at Yunlan City three months later.
After condensing his cultivation to the late stage of Qi refining, Xu Wen pretended to be an ordinary cultivator wandering through the Hengjue Mountains and walked slowly to the city gate.
There were already several people queuing up in front, and a city guard was saying lazily:
"Thirty-five spirit stones, fifteen city entry fees, twenty city entry order deposits, which can be returned when the token is returned. If you lose the token, you can get a new one for free!"
So dark!
Xu Wen couldn't help but scream in his heart after hearing this, this means that this token is worth ten spirit stones.
This large batch of ordinary tokens does not even cost a single spiritual stone. Yunlan City is completely robbing these casual cultivators.
Sure enough, immediately a young casual cultivator muttered in a low voice unhappily:
"What kind of token is this? Is it inlaid with fine gold and mithril? It's so expensive?"
Maybe he was a little angry, so his voice was a little louder. The middle-aged city guard immediately darkened his face in displeasure and said coldly:
"If you don't want to come in, get out. What kind of place do you think this Yunlan City is? You can't even afford this little spiritual stone. Why are you here, begging for food?"
Each fairy city is far apart, and Qi Refining monks cannot cross it at all. As the center of a large area, any fairy city is an irreplaceable existence, and there is no need to worry about being alone.
Being scolded by him with a gun and a stick, the young monk was angry and angry, but he did not dare to refute. He could only look down at the ground and remain silent.
Seeing that the other party did not dare to say anything, the city guard snorted proudly and said nothing more.
Soon it was Xu's turn to ask. The middle-aged city guard casually asked a few questions about his name, then threw a token and said lazily:
"Be honest in the city and don't mess around, otherwise you will be disqualified from entering the city."
Xu Wen was almost angry. In his experience, everyone was polite most of the time.
Even quarrels are emotional reactions, and few people have such lazy and lazy vulgarity.
It can only be said that a person is nourished by the soil and water. This Liuyungu horoscope is at odds with Xu Wen, and just one meeting makes him very unhappy.
Suppressing his displeasure, he followed the others and slowly approached the city.
Seeing Nuo Da's contemplation, Xu Wen felt a little uncomfortable for a while after not being active as a Qi Refiner for a long time.
After thinking for a while, several city gates came around, vying to introduce him to the surroundings.
Seeing this scene, Xu Wen couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help but think of his experience in Qingfeng City. The same was true for Li Xiaoqing back then.
Today, he is still young, but Li Xiaoqing died more than ten years ago, and his sons are all in their seventies.
Things are different and people are different, but that’s just the way it is.
He glanced at the children gathered together and danced a relatively clean way:
"I want to get some news..."
He had just arrived and was not familiar with the place. It was too inefficient to ask around on his own, so he had to use the local network.
Although it was already known from Feilong Trading Company that the person who captured Hai Coral was Jin Dan Zhenren from Liuyun Valley, this was far from enough.
"okay!"
The twelve-year-old child immediately started chattering and introduced Xu Wen to a street.
Even though these children are young and have no cultivation qualifications, when it comes to familiarity with a place, most people are really not as familiar with it as they are.
Soon, Xu Wen was taken to a bookstore on the corner of the street. The books he bought were all ordinary books, not inherited items, but the owner of the bookstore had the fifth level of Qi refining.
Just by glancing at the other person, Xu Wen knew that the child was not fooling him.
After giving the child a spiritual stone and telling him to leave, Xu Wen walked in front of the bookstore owner and said calmly:
"This is my first time coming here. I want to know what happened in Yunlan City in the past year. The more detailed it is, the better!"
There are two types of intelligence work. One is secret intelligence. This kind of information will definitely not be available to an intelligence dealer who is only in the middle stage of Qi refining.
One is some ordinary but meaningful things that can be collected by spending time and energy and obtained from caring people. This boss is obviously such a person.
The slightly old boss looked Xu Wen up and down and said calmly:
"That's not cheap!"
With a "pop" sound, Xu Wen directly lined up a cloth bag filled with one hundred spirit stones in front of the opponent and said calmly:
"As long as the goods are genuine!"
People who have been in contact with spirit stones for a long time can roughly judge the number of spirit stones just by the volume of the sound, without counting or using spirit stones.
Seeing this cloth bag, the boss suddenly became energetic. He quickly handed a pamphlet to Xu Wen and said respectfully:
"Please take a look, guest, this is my most detailed one..."
After rolling his eyes a few times, Xu Wen put down the bag, stood up and left.
The old monk rummaged through the cloth bag, quickly put away the stall, and walked away in a hurry.
After finding a hotel, Xu Wen began to read the brochure carefully, and soon found information about sea coral.
Half a year ago, Zhao Kegang, the golden elixir ancestor of Liuyun Valley who came here occasionally, suddenly led a large number of disciples out of the city. Counting the time, it was exactly when Haihualou was passing by.
Yunlan City is not a big city, and most of the time there is no real Jindan garrison, but this time Zhao Kegang is uncharacteristically visiting here frequently.
This information is all routine information and cannot detect higher-level information, but it is enough.
In the next few days, Xu Wen wandered around the city's wine shops, teahouses, and ghost markets, collecting information about Zhao Kegang and his foundation-building disciples without leaving any trace.
From time to time, he dressed up as various ordinary casual cultivators and circled around the city lord's palace in Yunlan City. Many green clams that were difficult to detect with the naked eye were quietly scattered around.
Soon, many green clam bugs were brought to the city lord's mansion and infected other people.
