After the ceremony was over, Xiao Jinxuan introduced Qin Fengming and Qin Fengming into the main hall.
This hall is the ancestral hall where the Xiao family worships their ancestors. It is very spacious and is often used as an important meeting place for the family.
The protection of this palace is also extremely astonishing. Even monk Chengdan could not even think of destroying it in a short time because when it was built, it was used as a refuge for the family in times of trouble.
This sudden disaster happened, and only half of the clan members escaped here.
Qin Fengming followed Xiao Jinxuan into this palace so easily after a lot of careful consideration.
The restrictions in this palace are extremely astonishing. Qin Fengming and Qin Fengming have no idea whether there is any killing move inside. However, when they see Xiao Jinxuan, although there is a slight uneasiness between his brows, there is no evil intention in his eyes.
But just in case, he still held dozens of talismans in his hand. At the same time, he also held a thin red needle in his hand. He only waited for the opponent to make the slightest move and then used it to kill Xiao Jinxuan.
After the guests and hosts were seated, Xiao Jinxuan immediately ordered the rest of the clan to serve tea.
"This time, my Xiao family was able to turn the crisis into safety only because of the help of fellow Taoist Wei. I, on my behalf, the Xiao family here once again expresses their gratitude to fellow Taoist for your generous intervention."
After he finished speaking, he and the other three foundation-building monks knelt down in front of Qin Fengming and paid homage.
Qin Fengming didn't dare to support him. He immediately bowed and helped the four of them up, saying "I don't dare" in succession.
When everyone sat down again, Qin Fengming smiled slightly and said to himself: "This time, Daoyou Xiao's family happened to be in a big disaster. Wei happened to be passing by here and was heard from fellow Taoist, so he came here. This is also the fate of Daoyou's family."
"Alas, if fellow Daoist Wei hadn't killed all the murderers with his amazing skills, it would have been impossible for our tribe to survive. This is a great favor to our tribe, and Xiao will never forget it."
"However, Mr. Wei heard that this incident was caused by some ore, but I don't know if this is true."
After hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan and the four of them looked at each other and then at Qin Fengming's side, Jiao Zhanshan said without much hesitation:
"Fellow Taoist, what you said is true. A few months ago, a spiritual stone mine owned by my Xiao family was excavated. Some medium-grade spiritual stones were excavated, and a spiritual stone was also found in the mine."
Xiao Jinxuan also knew that it was difficult to preserve the matter. Instead of concealing it without any credibility, it would be better to admit that he had no intention of falling out with the middle-aged man in front of him.
"But I don't know what the spirit stone looks like. Wei has only seen the spirit stone in classics, but its specific appearance has never been seen with his own eyes. I wonder if Daoyou Xiao can show it to open Wei's eyes." "
Seeing that the other party confirmed the matter so easily, Qin Fengming secretly admired him, so he immediately said
"Haha, what's the point of this? Friends, please take a look."
Xiao Jinxuan said as he waved his hand, a simple jade box appeared in his hand. With a snap of his fingers, the lid of the box opened, revealing an irregular jade stone the size of a duck egg inside.
The surface of this jade is covered by a layer of colorful clouds. A trace of spiritual energy emanates from the clouds. What kind of material is inside is difficult to see through with the naked eye?
Qin Fengming's spiritual consciousness was released and shot towards the jade, but what surprised him was that as soon as his spiritual consciousness came into contact with the layer of colorful clouds, it was immediately bounced back, making it difficult to enter even a single inch.
"Xiao Taoist friend Wei wants to have a closer look, but I don't know if you can trust Wei."
Qin Fengming was also shocked by this mysterious ore. He was a refiner and was naturally better at the ore than others. Suddenly seeing this strange thing, he couldn't help but have a look of novelty on his face.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, please take a look."
I never thought that Xiao Jinxuan would hesitate at all and immediately handed over the jade box in his hand to Qin Fengming without hearing what Qin Fengming said.
Qin Fengming took the jade box and couldn't help but look at it carefully for a moment, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
After a while, he put the lid back on the box and returned it to Xiao Jinxuan with both hands. He said with a smile: "Yes, this is the legendary spirit stone. There is no doubt that the value of this thing is great, but it is difficult to measure it with spirit stones." To think that such a strange thing would appear in such a poor place as Quzhou."
"Alas, although this thing is cherished very much, it is also a source of trouble. Without this thing, my Xiao family would not have suffered such a catastrophe. If fellow Taoists do not despise me, the Xiao family is willing to donate this thing to fellow Taoists to talk about this. A little reward for helping.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Fengming and Jiao Zhanshan were shocked at the same time. They had never thought that Xiao Jinxuan would say such a thing.
"It is absolutely forbidden for Mr. Wei to help in this matter. Although fellow Daoist Xiao has made it clear that he will give the family property as a gift, Mr. Wei is too precious to accept it."
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to refuse to keep this thing in my Xiao family. It will definitely attract spies. This will be very detrimental to my Xiao family. Xiao also wanted to send it back to the clan, but the journey was too far. I was afraid of it during the journey." Something went wrong and I never set out, which led to this tragic disaster."
"If fellow Taoist collect it, this hidden danger will be eliminated for our Xiao family."
Although Qin Fengming knew that what he said was not sincere, his words were so touching that he couldn't help but smile slightly in his heart. As expected, none of these top foundation-building monks are economical people.
"The Xiao family clan, is it possible that Fellow Daoist Xiao is a member of the Xiao family in Qianhuzhou?"
Seeing the other party mentioning the Xiao family clan, Qin Fengming asked in shock even though he had already deduced it.
"Yes, I believe that these tribesmen are originally a branch of the Xiao family in Qianhuzhou. Although their ancestors were from a wealthy family, our tribe has been getting weaker and weaker over the past tens of thousands of years and we had no choice but to migrate here."
Qin Fengming was extremely excited when he heard the other party admit it bluntly. Although the Xiao clan has declined, the family heritage is still there, and the pill recipe he is looking for may still exist.
"So if Fellow Daoist Xiao can give this spirit stone to the clan, it is very possible that it will be re-listed to the ancestral hall."
Qin Fengming's eyes flashed and he muttered for a moment before speaking.
"What Fellow Daoist Wei said is somewhat true, but the matter is too difficult. Xiao just thought about it but was unable to do it. Although this thing has been in hand for many days, it is still in his hands to this day."
Xiao Jinxuan sighed softly, his tone was a little lonely, and he said in a faint voice that his clan had been thinking about returning to the ancestral hall for a long time, but without making a great contribution to the clan, it was difficult to succeed. If this could really succeed, all the family's property would be donated. He will agree without hesitation
"If Fellow Daoist Xiao can trust Mr. Wei, Mr. Wei can facilitate this matter."
As soon as Qin Fengming's words came out, everyone present was immediately shocked and their eyes widened and they were speechless for a long time.
