"..."
Hao Qingyan was more panic-stricken than anyone in the room at this time. His eyes quickly moved back and forth between the two women, and before the dull look on his face faded, a new kind of astonishment appeared on his face.
"Stewardship."
Zhu Wanzhi still lowered her head, staring at the corner of her lavender brocade skirt, and just handed her hand over again: "The cassock?"
"Oh, easy to say! Easy to say!"
Hao Qingyan subconsciously smiled and was about to take the Qiankun bag, but suddenly the hairs on his back stood up, as if he was pressed against his back by some extremely sharp weapon! It's creepy!
He was stiff for a long time, then slowly twisted his body and looked back with a wry smile.
On the spot, Wei Lingjiang's expression did not change, and he still had a secluded look, like a god with jade bones.
Seeing Hao Qingyan looking back at him with a wry smile, the expression on his face seemed to be extremely helpless.
She only raised her eyes slightly, as if nothing had happened, and said calmly:
"Aren't we going to continue talking about cassocks? Steward, please continue."
"Yes, yes, I will continue to speak, I will continue to speak."
In just a few breaths, Hao Qingyan was almost sweating like rain. He stretched out his hand to touch his face in embarrassment and said carefully:
"Fellow Taoists, because the Huaiwu Cave is about to open, it is very dangerous there. The rules are that you need to have a dharma robe close to you before you can enter, so..."
He swallowed hard and then smiled helplessly:
"Today, there are only two types of protective robes left in Baojuzhai. One is the 'White Water Cloud Shirt' from the hands of Master Xue Xuan of Shenhuoya. This item is a middle-grade talisman, one of the Eighteen Divine Treasures. It is extremely tough! Even when surrounded by poisonous miasma, fire and thunder, it will not affect the body! Especially this robe is made of jellyfish essence as the base material. When driving, billowing clouds flow around the body, making it look beautiful and colorful in an instant. !”
He pointed to a jade case, on which was placed a pure gown as white as snow, with clouds, wind and mist lingering on it, forming a knot of dragons and snakes.
"As for the other piece, it was made by Xue Rong, Master Xue Xuan's uncle from Shenhuo Cliff. It is called 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes'. This thing——"
"I want that 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes', please excuse me!"
Before Hao Qingyan could finish speaking, Zhu Wanzhi suddenly raised her head.
She finally plucked up the courage to look at Chen Heng, her face flushed, even her ears and neck were a delicate red color, and her eyelashes fluttered like a timid deer in the mountains, streams and forests.
"Since it was made by a real person, the 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes' must be better than the 'White Water Cloud Clothes'. The beasts in the Huaiwu Cave are very ferocious. I think..."
Zhu Wanzhi just looked at Chen Heng and stopped talking.
"But the 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes' is a sacred treasure of twenty kinds. It is already the best among middle-grade talismans. After only one refining, it is a top-grade talisman. It is in this Baojuzhai San The first floor is also the key to the building!"
Hao Qingyan didn't bother wiping his sweat at this time and was shocked:
"Junior sister, is this...?"
He was obviously familiar with the Baihedong group, and he smiled wryly and cupped his hands towards the leader, Zhou Xingling:
"Junior Brother Zhou, the 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes' are quite expensive, aren't they?"
"Look what I do, can I be her master?"
Zhou Xingling, who had white hair and was wearing a cape-crown raincoat, glared: "Don't involve me in this kind of thing. Old Hao, you don't seem very kind. You want to drag me into trouble, right?!"
"this……"
Hao Qingyan smiled bitterly again.
Under the gazes of the two women, he became seriously confused again. Zhu Wanzhi's Qiankun bag was only close at hand, but he did not dare to reach out to pick it up. Even his sleeves and robes hung stiffly in place.
"Fellow Taoist! Say something!"
Hao Qingyan finally couldn't stand it any longer, and turned his eyes to Chen Heng pleadingly, slapped him hard, and said:
"Fellow Taoist, please say something quickly!"
Chen Heng frowned, and at this moment, Wei Lingjiang narrowed his eyes again and said:
"How many cassocks are there in this building?"
"...Sixteen white water cloud shirts and seven Xuanji treasure clothes."
Hao Qingyan wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was confused at first, and then explained: "It seems that these robes are extremely expensive. Even some foundation-building Taoists who have cultivated Zhen Qi cannot afford to buy them if they are of a small fortune." , so——”
At this time, Wei Lingjiang had no intention of listening any more, and just gently threw away one of his sleeves.
When Hao Qingyan opened it and took a look, he was immediately stunned and took a few steps back. He bumped into a jade case and stumbled for a while.
"so much?!"
After a long time, he yelled, his hands shaking like chaff.
"I want all the robes from Guizhai."
Wei Lingjiang's voice was calm, he glanced at Zhu Wanzhi, and then looked back calmly:
"All of them."
"...All of them?!"
Not only did Hao Qingyan feel as if he had been struck by lightning, but also the disciples from Baihe Cave were stunned and inexplicably agitated.
"you!"
Zhu Wanzhi looked at her anxiously.
"What exactly do you want to do, senior sister?"
Chen Heng spoke.
"I can do whatever I want with my own money. Even if I throw it in the water, I can still hear the sound."
Wei Ling Jiang said coldly:
"Why, junior brother, does he have something to say? Do you want to fight for someone else?"
Chen Heng took a deep look at her, turned around expressionlessly, and tried to keep his tone as calm as possible, but he could still hear a few ups and downs in it:
"Sister, don't go crazy!"
He took Wei Lingjiang's sleeve bag from Hao Qingyan, who was still in a daze, and then handed it over apologetically:
"Now that I'm nagging, I hope the manager won't blame me."
"Good... easy to talk! Easy to talk!"
It was clear that the deal couldn't be concluded, but Hao Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge boulder of ten thousand kilograms had been lifted off his back, and his whole body felt relaxed.
"If some low-quality treasured clothes arrive after my fast for a few days, I, Old Hao, will definitely tell my Taoist friends and leave one for you in advance!"
"Thank you very much."
Chen Heng smiled and cupped his hands again.
Wei Lingjiang looked at the sleeve handed by Chen Heng, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, his pupils were more cold and cold.
Qingzhi put his hands on his hips and watched the scene with bright eyes, unblinking.
"As for the extra money mentioned earlier, wasn't it already agreed that a flying sword would be enough?"
After a few breaths, seeing Wei Lingjiang still motionless, Chen Heng gently raised his hand to press his forehead, sighed inwardly, leaned over and said:
"Why do you need to compete with her for wealth? Who are you angry with?"
"I don't want to be angry with anyone..."
Seeing him leaning over slightly, the two of them were suddenly much closer. Wei Lingjiang's eyes flashed with a hint of dodge: "I——"
"I have my own opinion about the robes. Senior sister, let's talk about it later when we get back."
"You don't want her vestments?"
"Am I so unworthy in the eyes of senior sister?"
The sleeve bag was pushed forward again.
Wei ordered Jiang to be silent for a while and couldn't help but look at him.
After a moment, he lowered his gaze again and reached out to take it.
The corners of her tightly pursed lips loosened, and she curled her lips imperceptibly, without saying a word.
At this time, Qingzhi beside him could no longer bear it.
"that……"
She was very excited and raised her chubby hands vigorously:
"If you all don't love money so much, actually, I can't help but keep it for you! Give it to me! Put it in my hand! I swear I will keep it well!"
But her words were ignored.
Wei Lingjiang ignored Qingzhi's struggle, held her in his arms, turned around and left.
After Chen Heng also said goodbye to Hao Qingyan.
On the side, Zhou Xingling, who had been watching the show for a long time, came up with a smile, grabbed his shoulders and dragged him towards the wine shop.
This white-haired Taoist had already vaguely heard the rumors, and knew that Chen Heng might be his mentor's close disciple. In addition, he had always had a good impression of Chen Heng, and the idea of befriending him became even more powerful.
"Junior sister Wen, we haven't seen each other for a long time. How about Pindao being the host today and having a drink?"
Wei Lingjiang, who was already walking towards the long staircase, was also called by Zhou Xingling. She hesitated but did not answer immediately.
"Senior Brother Zhou, I still have something to do, so I'll take the first step."
Zhu Wanzhi raised her eyes, took a deep look at Chen Heng, and didn't look back.
"Eh...Eh?"
Zhou Xingling was shocked and turned pale. He shouted several times but ignored him.
"Senior Brother, haha! You are finished!" A disciple from Baihedong gloated: "If Junior Sister Zhu reports it to Senior Uncle Jiang Gu, you will inevitably be punished again!"
"Can you blame me for this? Isn't it the fault of Junior Brother Chen?"
Zhou Xingling stared, helpless.
"Why do you blame me?"
Chen Heng shook his head.
Seeing that Zhu Wanzhi had already walked away, Wei Lingjiang had no intention of staying any longer. Seeing that Chen Heng could only give him a brief nod, he was surrounded by Zhou Xingling and others and left.
She smiled softly and walked out of Baojuzhai.
There were still people coming and going on the street, and it was a bustling scene, so lively.
Qingzhi in her arms yawned out of boredom, staring with big eyes like a dead fish, and was in a daze. But before she had gone far out of Baojuzhai, Qingzhi suddenly let out a whimper, stretched out her neck violently, and regained her energy. Big shake.
Wei Ling Jiang also stopped in time.
At the corner, a pretty girl wearing a lavender embroidered skirt and a jade hairpin in her thick black hair was waiting there quietly.
Wei Lingjiang's eyes only paused for a moment, and without lingering, he passed by her.
"Senior Sister Wen, don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
Seeing Wei Lingjiang turning a blind eye to her, Zhu Wanzhi raised her chin and said unwillingly, "You and your senior brother have only known each other for a few days, how much do you know about his temperament?! Why do you have to fight with me?"
"Then how well do you know him? I know more about him than you do... He is also more ruthless than you think."
"Ruthless? Does Senior Sister Wen know that Senior Brother was kidnapped by Yan Zhen from the Xuanzhen Sect?"
Zhu Wanzhi suddenly sneered.
At this time.
Wei Ling Jiang stopped suddenly.
"Senior brother suffered such a catastrophe when he was young, and his background was very miserable. If senior sister just wants to have fun, I advise you to accept this idea."
Seeing that Wei Lingjiang finally showed signs of movement, Zhu Wanzhi stared at her and said word by word:
"Although I have only met senior sister a few times, I also know that senior sister has always been cold and cold towards others, treating everything as if it were nothing. How have you ever shown any kindness? Do you think you can really have the same temperament as senior brother? Man, have any good consequences been achieved?!"
Wei Lingjiang's expression froze slightly, and his hands holding Qingzhi unconsciously exerted force.
"..."
Qingzhi's eyes suddenly bulged.
Then he slowly rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue.
"You and I just met by chance, how much do you know about me? Not to mention."
After a few breaths.
Wei Lingjiang stared at Zhu Wanzhi coldly and said:
"Don't say that the relationship between me and my junior brother is innocent. Even if there is something, who will you come here to talk nonsense about?"
After saying these words, Wei Lingjiang was too lazy to stay for a moment longer, turned around and left without looking at Zhu Wanzhi.
Zhu Wanzhi was stunned.
The girl frowned slightly and was silent for a moment.
…
…
Late at night.
Hongye Island, where immortals live.
A white ray of light flashed from the sky and landed steadily outside the inn.
After Chen Heng walked up to the fifth floor of Xianke Residence, before he could reach the door and open the door, Wei Lingjiang suddenly popped up next to him like a rabbit.
"Senior sister..."
Chen Heng was slightly taken aback, cupped his hands and said, "It's late at night, senior sister, haven't you gone to bed yet?"
"Dharma... cassock."
Wei Lingjiang rarely murmured: "You——"
"I have purchased the robes, the 'Armor Iron Clothes', low-grade talismans, and three heavenly treasures."
Chen Heng shook his head and said: "It's ridiculous to say that. I had obtained one of these talismans before when I eliminated those bandits in Miao Nanfeng... But at that time, I didn't know what the cave master was thinking, nor did I know that he wanted to reopen it." Huaiwu Cave', now that I have purchased the talisman, the money has more than doubled, but I have lost money."
"Have you bought it?"
Wei Lingjiang was stunned for a moment.
Her heart skipped a beat, and the hand she originally stretched out quietly retracted.
The two stood opposite each other, not knowing what to say for a moment, and there was a sudden silence.
Chen Heng saw Wei Lingjiang staring at the ground as if a flower was growing there. He hesitated for a moment and said goodbye to her. However, just as he was about to close the door, Wei Lingjiang suddenly spoke.
"Junior brother... do you think my temperament is very difficult to approach?"
After asking this question anxiously, no sound was heard for a long time.
Wei Lingjiang raised his head somewhat helplessly.
At arm's length.
Chen Heng was just looking at him quietly, his dark eyes hiding some thoughts, just like an abyss of unknown depth.
"Sister, you are upset."
Chen Heng's throat moved slightly, but his voice was still faint and nothing could be heard:
"This is a taboo in Taoism..."
Before Wei Lingjiang could say anything else, he had already closed the door quietly.
Wei Lingjiang remained silent outside the house for a long time, and then returned to the room after a while.
"Didn't you send it out?"
In the side room, Qingzhi, who was somersaulting and rolling on the bed, looked at the sleeve bag in her hand and shouted:
"We went back specially to buy that 'Xuanji Treasure Clothes', but that guy is so disrespectful?!"
"It's not that I didn't send it out, it's..."
Wei Lingjiang was speechless for a moment.
After a few breaths, she slowly lowered her eyebrows and said with a smile:
"It's late at night, haven't you been clamoring for sleep? Go to bed quickly."
…
But only separated by a wall.
Chen Heng took out two jars of wine from the Qiankun bag and placed them on the tea table. Ancestor Fu Shen, who was lying in the corpse, immediately cheered, removed the mud seal, and lay down at the mouth of the jar, leaning half of his body in to drink.
"Inner demon? Or inner demon?"
Look at this little old man drinking like crazy.
After a long time, Chen Heng suddenly asked on the futon beside him.
"It is both an internal demon and an inner demon. It is full of strange things and pervasive. It is an obstacle that blocks the path, and it is specifically designed to block the path of bad people!"
Ancestor Fu Shen raised his head, burped, and said:
"Have you thought about it?"
Chen Heng lowered his eyes and did not respond.
The glass beast's head lamp was on in the room, and suddenly the lanterns exploded, and the figures reflected on the wall were instantly drawn into a trance and mottled.
After a long time.
Then he opened his mouth and said:
"I see."
Ancestor Fu Shen was quite puzzled by what he meant, but when he looked over, Chen Heng had already fallen into meditation on the futon.
Ancestor Fu Shen shrugged and bowed towards the altar again.
…
…
A few days later.
Within the realm of one true law.
The seal on Chen Heng's hand suddenly paused.
Immediately, tens of thousands of flames burst out from his body, instantly burning the mind into blue smoke.
