Chapter 802 Treatment(1/2)
Lu Qiu and others followed and looked to the sky behind, but wherever they saw only a few floating clouds in the sky, and they did not see the monk Shi Wu mentioned.
Just when Lu Qiu thought Shi Wu was trying to find an excuse to leave, a white-haired old man wearing a brown robe and a jade crown teleported in front of them.
When Lu Qiu and Cai Fu saw the people coming, they were surprised and said, "Master!"
True Man Mo Feng first leaned over to Shi Wu and bowed: "In the lower Bilinggu Mo Feng, thank you for saving the young disciple Lu Qiu."
"Please exempt you from the gift. My name is Shi Wu, and I am a casual cultivator who is traveling in the north. I was guided by your disciple before, but now I happen to pass by. I just want to repay the love." Shi Wu replied.
When Lu Qiu and others saw that the Zhenren Mo Feng in the middle stage of the God Refining actually called Shi Wu a senior, they couldn't help but wonder what Shi Wu's cultivation level was.
In fact, even Master Mo Feng could not determine Shi Wu's specific cultivation. He only knew that even though he was wearing the magic robe that concealed his cultivation in the middle stage of the God Refining Refining, he still kept a thousand miles away from them, Shi Wu still discovered his existence. Master Mo Feng said respectfully: "Senior Shi is too humble. If he hadn't been kind-hearted, the young disciple would have been killed now."
Shi Wu smiled and said, "Even if I don't take action, your disciple will not have any major problems. After all, you, the master, have been secretly guarding you."
True Man Mo Feng said ashamed: "I made you laugh at me."
Shi Wu expressed his understanding of the behavior of Zhenren Mo Feng and said, "It is her blessing to have a master who can care about her."
"Thank you for your understanding, senior." Zhenren Mo Feng said gratefully.
Lu Qiu didn't understand what they were talking about at all, so she stepped forward and asked, "Master, what's going on?"
True Man Mo Feng explained: "It is for the master to ask fellow Taoist Sikong to buy this batch of Bilingguo at the mid-level level of God Refining from Bilinggu, and then ask the master of the valley to designate you two to send to Wenping City. The master wants to use these fifty Bilingguos to explore the bottom of the person you like."
Lu Qiu said in surprise: "Master, why do you do this?"
As soon as Lu Qiu finished asking, she thought of her previous experience and the conversation between Shi Wu and Mo Feng. She was stunned.
Shi Wu saw that Lu Qiu had already understood that what was left was their Bilinggu family affairs. He said goodbye to Master Mo Feng and said, "I still have something to do, so I will say goodbye."
True Man Mo Feng knew the right way: "Senior, go slowly."
Shiwu rose up in the air and continued to fly northeast.
The spiritual body of the Heavenly Tribulation said curiously on the way: "Shi Wu, how did you discover the true man Mo Feng? Didn't you only have to expand your ears? Did he talk to himself while hiding?"
Shi Wu used the method of introspection in "Nine Transformation Spiritual Art" to return to the spirit body of the Heavenly Tribulation: "Not only did he not talk to himself, he was carefully hiding in the air. If it weren't for those two moves, I wouldn't have found him."
"Which two moves?" asked the Tianjie Spirit Body.
Shi Wu told it: "The first time I went to save Lu Qiu, I felt a sudden rushing sound in the air thousands of miles southwest. I ignored it because I wanted to save people, but I just kept my mind. When I subdued Cai Fu and the others, the rapid rushing sound came to an abrupt end. So I deliberately took Cai Fu and others to the grass below, and a slow airflow sound was approaching down in the place where the wind disappeared. In this way, I was sure that someone was monitoring there. Combined with the conversation between Lu Qiu and Cai Fu, I guess the person who was monitoring was probably the senior of Bi Linggu. The other party had already discovered something wrong with Cai Fu and wanted to use this method to make Cai Fu show his true face."
The spirit of heavenly tribulation admired and said, "The heart is as delicate as dust, amazing!"
"The price of being amazing is to concentrate on expanding your ears externally, which is very tired." Shi Wu rubbed his ears and complained.
The spiritual body of the heavenly tribulation knows that the limit of Shiwu's external ear expansion power is within a range of five thousand miles, so this only one thousand miles is nothing to Shiwu. It exposes Shiwu's Taoism: "Okay, how can you say it when you are really tired?"
Seeing that Shi Wu had never deceived the spirit of the heavenly tribulation, he chuckled and flew towards Wenping City quickly.
In the afternoon, the scorching sun is in the sky.
The monks who arrived in Wenping City hurried into the city after delivering the spirit stones. When they arrived in the city, they immediately felt a sense of coolness.
The four guards who were on duty at the Xicheng Gate looked at the steaming ground outside. The oldest guard turned around and said, "It's better for us lords. If there is no formation barrier to isolate the heat outside on this hot day, we have to spend our spiritual power to resist the heat."
The other three guards said it was. A young guard excitedly said, "So, after my parents heard that I joined the city guards, they were so happy."
The elderly guard grinned, and then he hurriedly bowed, "See the city lord."
The other three guards thought the elderly guard was joking, but they never thought that behind them, the voice of the lord of Wenping City was really heard: "Don't give me a gift."
The three guards quickly turned around and salute.
The middle-aged man in a red brocade robe said gently: "No need to be polite, you can go out with me to welcome a distinguished guest."
The four monks who had thought that it was too hot outside immediately followed the man in the brocade robe and were exposed to the scorching sun. As soon as they were about to activate their spiritual power to resist the high temperature, they felt a layer of spiritual power extending from the front to block the heat. They felt a sense of gratitude for the man in the brocade robe. They all stood straight to welcome the arrival of the distinguished guest.
Shi Wu saw the red city wall in front of him from afar. When he flew to the west gate of Wenping City, the man in brocade robe who had been waiting at the door bowed first, "Sikong Can, the city lord of Wenping City, has seen Senior Shi."
Shi Wu fell to Sikong Can, and he said politely: "Master Sikong, you are polite. I wonder who the lord learned from whom I would come to Wenping City?"
Sikong Can replied: "I learned from fellow Taoist Mo Feng."
Shi Wu originally thought it was Hua Jingxuan who left some clues here, but now he heard that it was Sikong Can who was notified by the True Man Mo Feng, and he was a little disappointed. However, he still explained the purpose of the visit: "Master Sikong City, I passed by Guicheng to buy a new map and three spiritual meal recipes of the God-Refining Level."
"Senior, please come with me." Sikong Can signaled.
Shi Wu then walked into Wenping City side by side with Sikong Can. As soon as he entered the city, he found that the temperature inside the city was very different from that outside. It was hot and the spring breeze inside was pleasant.
Shi Wu asked Sikong Can, "Lord of Sikong City, is the formation barrier in your Wenping City effective in isolating high temperatures?"
Sikong Can said: "This formation barrier not only has the effect of isolating high temperatures, but also can resist most of the severe cold in winter."
Shi Wu immediately thought that if Fengyuan City also had such a formation barrier, then the merchants and customers inside would not have to use their spiritual power to resist the scorching heat or extremely cold weather, which would be more beneficial for Fengyuan City to recruit merchants. He sincerely asked: "Master Sikong City, what level is the formation barrier of Guicheng? What is the coverage range?"
If I hadn't heard the true man Mo Feng describe Shi Wu's clothes in detail in the Mirror Flower Art, Sikong Can could not have associated the humble and polite young man in front of him with the powerful senior Huixu. He replied: "The formation barrier in Wenping City is set up by my master Zou Wei. This formation barrier is at the late stage of the God Refining, with the city lord's mansion as the center. The radius of 50,000 miles is covered by the city lord's mansion. If the senior is interested, I can help you ask my master if this formation barrier is still available."
Shi Wu said embarrassedly: "Will this trouble you too much?"
Sikong Can said: "Senior, you are so kind. This is just a slaughter."
"Then you take me to the Travel Gate and Zhuguang Pavilion to buy maps and spiritual meal recipes. Then I will go back to the city lord's mansion with you, and I will tell fellow Daoist Zou about buying the formation barrier." Shi Wudao.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Sikong Can's face, and he said, "Senior Shi, our Wenping City is just a medium-sized city and is not qualified to set up a Zhuguang Pavilion stronghold. So I can only take you to a store selling spiritual meals in the city to buy."
Shi Wu thought that as long as he had a map, he could find a city with Zhuguang Pavilion to buy spiritual meal recipes. He said, "Let's fly to the travel gate."
"Okay." Sikong Can said with emotion.
The two of them flew up in the air and walked straight towards the five tall buildings in the east of the city.
Li Xiang, the manager of the Travel Gate, had his subordinates report that the city lord Sikong Can was leading a man, and he immediately went over to greet him in person.
When he heard Sikong Can introduce the handsome young man with Fengshen, he used the three words "Senior Shi", Li Xiang immediately said respectfully: "Hello, Senior Shi."
Shi Wudao: "Manager Li, I want to buy a map to the third stronghold of Lingchen Alliance in the northeast. Can you sell it here?"
Li Xiang's face showed the same embarrassment as Sikong Can just now. Li Xiang said: "If you come back to Senior Shi, the third stronghold of the Lingchen Alliance in the north is six million miles away from Wenping City. The forces here of the younger generation are only within a radius of four million miles."
It would be fine if there was no Zhuguang Pavilion, Shi Wu didn't expect that he could not even buy a complete map.
Li Xiang saw the look that Sikong Can threw at him. He asked Shi Wu to tell him: "Senior Shi, can you give me some time? I have a way to complete the distribution map of the forces within the remaining two million miles."
"Oh?" Shi Wu agreed, "Then it's time for Li to manage the matter."
Li Xiang asked the travelers to bring spiritual tea to the two of them before he quickly walked out of the house.
Because True Man Mo Feng told Sikong Can that Shi Wu was probably a cultivator of returning to the void, Sikong Can kept sitting upright in his seat while waiting. Shi Wu did not raise his glass to drink tea, and Sikong Can didn't even dare to move.
Shi Wu said helplessly: "Lord Sikong City, just treat me as a guest who comes to ask you for your business. We are on an equal footing, you don't have to be so reserved."
Sikong Can felt stressed when he heard this: "How dare I be on an equal footing with my seniors? It is my honor to be able to do things for me."
Shi Wu covered his face with his hands and said, "Lord Sikong, if you do this, I will leave after I buy the map."
Sikong Can was stunned and said, "Senior, don't you still want to buy the formation barrier?"
Shi Wudao: "I really want to buy it. But I don't like this kind of appearance that others have to lower my level if they help me. In my concept, nothing is right. If you help me, I have to say thank you. If I have something to help you, I will repay you for your help."
Sikong Can obviously couldn't accept Shi Wu's words, so he made himself look as relaxed as possible. He said: "Senior Shi, please use tea."
Sikong Can said as he picked up his cup of spiritual tea first. Seeing this, Shi Wu picked up the tea cup and said, "Please, Lord Sikong."
After each of them took a sip of spiritual tea, the atmosphere in the room relaxed a lot.
Sikong Can took the initiative to say: "Senior Shi, if my master agrees to sell you that formation barrier, you probably have to go to Feixia Mountain, 700,000 miles north of Wenping City to get it yourself."
"If it is the north direction, it will not affect my itinerary." Shiwudao.
After hearing this, Sikong Can took another sip of spiritual tea. He actually wanted to find some more topics to talk to Shi Wu, but he didn't dare to explore Shi Wu's affairs. He finished talking about the two formation barriers that Shi Wu was concerned about.
Fortunately, Shi Wu is a chatty person, so he randomly found a topic and asked Sikong Can how to manage Wen Pingcheng in normal times.
Sikong Can is very skilled in this regard. He told Shiwu that the most important thing in managing a city is to balance the interests between merchants and customers...
Sikong Can talked for two moments until Li Xiang hurried over with a roll of map.
Li Xiang apologized to the two: "Senior Shi, Lord Sikong, you have been waiting for a long time. I contacted a friend who worked as a servant at Senior Lu Kang. After obtaining his boss' permission, he asked me to record the forces within the remaining two million miles in the form of oral statements."
Shi Wu said gratefully: "Thank you for your hard work, Manager Li. How many spirit stones are there on this map?"
Li Xiang handed over the map and said, "Senior just give me two hundred top-grade spirit stones."
When Shi Wu went to his waist to get the storage bag, he remembered that he had given all the top-grade spirit stones on his body to Gu Gang. He asked, "Manager Li, where can you exchange immortal jade for spirit stones here?"
Li Xiang's face was happy, but he did not reply to Shi Wu's words, but looked at Sikong Can first.
Sikong Can said: "Manager Li, this is the travel gate, you should make this achievement."
"Thank you, the city lord!" Li Xiang turned to Shi Wudao, "Senior Shi, we can exchange it here for one immortal jade for one million and two hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones."
Shi Wu has already asked about the usage of immortal jade in the Jiangling City Juxin Hall. It can not only be used for trading, but also a cultivation resource for cultivators above the god refining. But because the value of immortal jade is extremely high, if someone openly takes out the immortal jade to buy low-value items in front of a hospitality servant of a force, it will be considered as provoking this force. And what Shi Wu said at the beginning will not be a problem.
Those cultivators above the god refining have a great demand for immortal jade, and their forces will use top-grade spirit stones to purchase immortal jade as they require. As the city lord of Wenping City, Sikong Can and Li Xiang, the manager of Xinglumen, have performance requirements for immortal jade acquisition every year.
Shi Wu took out three immortal jades and said, "Please ask Manager Li to exchange them for me. In addition to deducting the cost of that map, you can take two hundred top-grade spirit stones from it as a hard-earned fee."
"Thank you, Senior Shi!" Li Xiang first handed over the map to Shi Wu, then took the three immortal jades and walked out of the room to exchange for Shi Wu.
Sikong Can, who already knew Shi Wu's temperament, smiled and said, "Senior Shi will not let others suffer any losses."
"At least this is true for you." Shi Wu also smiled.
