…
Crab Island, Wang's Living Room.
An old man with a fairy-like manner and kind eyes was sitting on a square chair in the hall, his fingers unconsciously tapping the antique tea table next to him, with a look of contemplation on his face.
This old man is naturally Li Qingfeng who retreated early from Forbidden Spirit Haiyunshan Island.
Since he and Wang Lixing parted ways five days ago, because most of the people who threatened him were on Yunshan Island, Li Qingfeng did not rush on his way, but he did not delay much and walked on the road leisurely. Return.
However, it was only more than two hours after he left Yunshan Island, and he was only a few hundred miles away from Yunshan Island.
A low and somewhat hazy explosion woke up Qingfeng Li who was immersed in walking. When the latter heard the noise, he immediately looked behind him.
His face suddenly became confused and uncertain. After struggling for a moment, Qingfeng Li finally stamped his feet and still did not rush back.
Then without saying a word, with a look of determination on his face, he suddenly increased his speed and fled towards the Forbidden Spirit Sea at full speed.
Qingfeng Li understood that since he was hundreds of miles away from Yunshan Island and could still vaguely hear this elusive sound, something extraordinary must have happened on Yunshan Island at this time.
Thinking of this, even though I was a little worried about Wang Lixing's safety, I knew that even if I retreated, I probably wouldn't be able to help him much.
Moreover, hundreds of miles away, it can still make him feel a little bit sad. One can imagine what kind of scene Wang Lixing must face on the island.
Even... I'm afraid Wang Lixing is dead now...
Finally, after thinking again and again, Qingfeng Li sighed slightly and decided not to care about what was going on behind him, and fled out at full speed.
In this way, hurriedly and slowly along the way, it took five days, and Qingfeng Li finally arrived at Wang's Crab Island.
…
At this time, Li Qingfeng was thinking about what Wang Lixing had told him, and was considering how to speak next.
In fact, if there hadn't been that movement later, there would have been nothing difficult for Qingfeng Li to say during this trip.
only……
"well……"
Thinking of this, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh secretly.
I couldn't help but hesitate in my heart as to whether or not to tell Mrs. Wang my conjecture.
However, before he could make a decision, a hearty laugh followed, interrupting his train of thought.
"Hahaha!"
"What do you think I said? I heard the chattering of magpies outside the cave very early in the morning. I was wondering. It turns out that a distinguished guest is coming."
Upon hearing this, Qingfeng Li immediately raised his head and looked outside. At this moment, a figure appeared in the hall.
Looking at the old man with a springy face appearing in front of him and feeling the aura emanating from his body, Li Qingfeng had already made a guess in his mind.
But after all, he had never seen this person before. After a slight pause, Li Qingfeng stood up, bowed his hands to the old man, and said with a smile on his face:
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist, you are so polite. I have been a close friend of the Wang family for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet them."
"It should be a great honor to finally have the honor to come to Wang's this time!"
Hearing these words that seemed like compliments, Wang Lequan couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
You must know that the old man in front of you is not an unknown person, but a second-level high-level formation mage who has been famous for a long time, and his own cultivation has also reached the foundation building perfection.
If the world of cultivators didn't look at age and only looked at cultivation, I would have to call him a senior if I couldn't tell.
Even if you ignore this matter and only talk about the several shops opened by your family on Xingling Island, your family still owes the other party a favor.
Logically speaking, there is no need for Qingfeng Li to compliment his family anyway. If he hadn't heard his father describe Qingfeng Li's general appearance, coupled with his accomplishments that should not be underestimated, Wang Lequan would have suspected that this person was a fake.
However, although Wang Lequan didn't quite understand the purpose of Qingfeng Li's visit, judging from the other party's tone, he definitely wasn't looking for trouble.
Thinking like this, adhering to the idea that he is a guest, Wang Lequan immediately responded with a laugh to Qingfeng Li's words:
"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Li is too polite!"
"Hahaha, everything I said is true," he responded with a smile. Then Qingfeng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and asked slightly embarrassed:
"Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist. Although I have been friends with nobles and gods for a long time, I have never met any fellow Taoist before," after a pause, Li Qingfeng said with a slightly apologetic look.
"Um... I don't know what to call you, but the current patriarch of the Wang family, Wang Lequan, Wang Daoyou?"
After hearing this, Wang Lequan's expression did not change, he nodded and smiled nonchalantly:
"Fellow Daoist Li is too polite," after saying this, he continued with a somewhat self-blaming tone:
"It's my fault that I didn't introduce him at the beginning."
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter, it's not too late to say it now," Qingfeng Li said with a smile and waved his hands.
Hearing this, Wang Lequan smiled and nodded in agreement, then stood up seriously and bowed his hands and said:
"I, Wang Lequan, is now the head of the Wang clan, and I have met fellow Daoist Li!"
Seeing Wang Lequan who suddenly became extremely formal, Li Qingfeng was a little stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he quickly returned the salute and then said in a pretentious tone:
"Fellow Taoist Lequan, why are you like this? It's really embarrassing for me."
Regarding these words, Wang Lequan smiled and nodded in apology. For him, there was no introduction before, but there was actually a hint of certification.
Regarding the old man in front of him later, Wang Lequan was basically certain that it was Li Qingfeng himself.
At this point, Wang Lequan, whether it was because Li Qingfeng had helped Wang in the past or because his cultivation was higher than his own, it was natural for him to give him a solemn courtesy.
After the two exchanged a few words, Wang Lequan asked Li Qingfeng to sit down, and immediately took out the good spiritual tea. After playing with it for a while, two steaming cups of spiritual tea appeared between them. On the coffee table.
Smiling and making a "please" gesture with one hand, Wang Lequan said a little apologetically:
"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Li, the family doesn't have anything to entertain Fellow Daoist. Only this second-level mid-grade spiritual tea is barely edible. Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended!"
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist, you are so polite," he said with a smile, Qingfeng Li picked up the teacup and took a sip.
After a moment, Li Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly with a satisfied look on his face, then nodded repeatedly:
"Well~... Not bad, good tea!"
Hearing this, Wang Lequan smiled even more.
"Since fellow Taoist likes it, I will bring half a catty to fellow Taoist later..." After saying this, as if he was worried about Qingfeng Li misunderstanding, Wang Lequan then explained with a smile:
"This Lingcha tea tree was planted by the ancestors of the family and has been taken care of until now. It only produces a few kilograms of tea every year, so I ask for your forgiveness, fellow Taoist."
Upon hearing this, Qingfeng Li immediately shook his head and waved his hands in refusal.
"Since this spiritual tea is so rare, how can I get even half a pound of it?"
Regarding these words, Wang Lequan's face became serious and he spoke righteously.
"Fellow Daoist Li, if it hadn't been for the help of fellow daoist, how could my family have opened a shop on Xingling Island? Compared with this kindness, this spiritual tea is really not worth mentioning. Please don't refuse, fellow daoist."
Hearing this, Li Qingfeng immediately wanted to refuse, but Wang Lequan on the side said immediately.
"That's it," he then stood up, bowed his hands, and said with a serious face:
"I and my family will remember the help I received from my fellow Taoist last time. If it comes in handy in the future, I, the Wang family, will do my best to help."
From the beginning to the present, through the verbal conversation with Li Qingfeng, Wang Lequan felt that he must have something important, but for some reason he never spoke.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Lequan thought that Li Qingfeng came here to ask for help or wanted the family to do something because of the last time he helped his family, so Wang Lequan said this.
However, because he didn't know what the specific matter was, Wang Lequan left some room in his words and only said what he could do.
Hearing this, Qingfeng Li couldn't help but be startled. After a moment, Qingfeng Li came back to his senses, how could he not know what Wang Lequan meant.
I couldn't help but feel a little bit dumbfounded. I immediately shook my head and said with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist Lequan has misunderstood. I am not here to seek help from nobles."
Hearing this, Wang Lequan became even more confused. If it wasn't this, what else could it be?
Are you looking for your father? But my father is not in the clan!
Thinking of this, Wang Lequan had a puzzled expression on his face, smiled and apologized, and then said:
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist, don't be offended. I said the wrong thing."
"It's just that Uncle Lixing is not in the clan, so... I don't know what the purpose of your friend's visit is!"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Qingfeng Li's face gradually disappeared, he paused, and immediately stated the purpose of his trip.
"Fellow Taoist Lequan, it's like this. I came here actually under the entrustment of Taoist friend Lixing. The nobles came here to hand over the spiritual objects that Taoist friend Lixing gave to me."
"Uncle Li Xing?" Hearing this, Wang Lequan's face couldn't help but be filled with surprise. Wasn't his father looking for a breakthrough opportunity? Why did Li Qingfeng hand over the spiritual object?
Thinking of this, Wang Lequan couldn't help but become more confused.
Looking at Wang Lequan with a puzzled look on his face, Li Qingfeng paused and then explained:
"Fellow Taoist Lequan, this is what happened. Back then..."
Qingfeng Li then started to talk about various aspects of his trip, but after much hesitation about the last thing, Qingfeng Li still did not express his guess.
After a while, after listening to Li Qingfeng's narration, Wang Lequan suddenly nodded and realized that was so.
At the same time, Wang Lequan felt extremely complicated about what his father had done, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Alas, it's all my fault, otherwise my father wouldn't still be worried about the family while looking for opportunities.
Sighing secretly in his heart, Wang Lequan cheered up, reluctantly smiled at Qingfeng Li and said:
"I really don't know how to thank fellow Taoist, but again, if you need help with anything in the future, I, Wang, will definitely be obliged to do so."
Li Qingfeng, who has become a mature man, naturally noticed that the words "within his power" disappeared from Wang Lequan's words, but at this time, he had no extra interest in thinking about this.
With a slight nod, Li Qingfeng brushed the storage bag with one hand, and high-grade spiritual stones worth nearly 200,000 low-grade spiritual stones appeared in front of him, as well as the jade slip on which Wang Lixing explained things before leaving.
Li Qingfeng placed them together in front of Wang Lequan, pointed at the spiritual stones and jade slips in front of him, and then said:
"Fellow Taoist Lequan, these are the things that fellow Taoist Lixing dragged me to hand over to the nobles. Taoist Taoist, please order a little bit to avoid any mistakes."
After hearing this, of course Wang Lequan would not do anything that would hurt the friendship, he forced a smile and said:
"Fellow Taoist is joking. If others can't believe it, how can they not trust fellow Taoist?" After saying this, Wang Lequan didn't look at it, then waved his hand, and the spiritual stones and jade slips in front of him disappeared.
Hearing this, Li Qingfeng nodded and said nothing more. Wang Lequan also stopped talking about sex because of this incident. For a while, the entire living room couldn't help but become quiet.
After a while, Wang Lequan took a deep breath, calmed down the depressed mood in his heart, and then apologized to Qingfeng Li, asking the latter to wait for a moment and come back as soon as he left.
Seeing this, Li Qingfeng nodded his head and said, "Fellow Taoist, go away." The latter then bowed his hands again and disappeared.
In less than half a stick of incense, Wang Lequan's figure appeared in the living room again. At this time, Wang Lequan no longer looked as depressed as before.
I saw him confess with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, I kept you waiting for a long time!"
"It doesn't matter." In response, Qingfeng Li said with a slight smile.
Seeing this, Wang Lequan smiled and started talking to Qingfeng Li again. After burning the incense for half a moment, he glanced at the bright sunlight outside the door. Qingfeng Li already had the intention to leave.
After a while.
"Hahaha, thank you Taoist fellow Taoist Lequan for your hospitality. Although I still want to sit down and talk with you, I have something important to do and have to leave and rush back to Xingling Island."
"In this case, I would like to ask fellow Taoists to bear with me. In the future, if you have time to come to Xingling Island, you must come to my home to talk."
After hearing this, Wang Lequan quickly stood up and returned the salute, then said with a smile on his face:
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist, this is serious. I should be the one thanking you. I have troubled fellow Taoist again and again, and I feel really ashamed!"
"Fellow Taoist, this is the spiritual tea that I just mentioned. Together with what I have collected, it only weighs less than a pound. Please don't be offended."
"Hey, you're making a fool of yourself by saying this!" Li Qingfeng said with a hint of reproach, taking the spiritual tea in his hand at the same time.
"Hahaha……"
"That's right," Qingfeng Li, who was walking out with his legs up, suddenly paused.
Hearing this, Wang Lequan, who was walking aside, laughed and said:
"Fellow Taoist, please tell me."
"It's like this. The noble has just obtained a batch of spiritual stones. What are the plans?"
After hearing this, Wang Lequan couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"There are no arrangements for the time being. What do you mean, fellow Taoist?"
"It's like this. Although I have practiced Taoism for so many years, although my cultivation strength is not worth mentioning, I still have some channels. If there is no arrangement for the noble spirit stone and you need the Foundation Building Pill, you might as well leave it to me."
"Not to mention too much, around 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones and a foundation-building pill. I can still get a few of them."
