Chapter 9 Qi Yunxiao
On the northern edge of the Shiniu Tribe's garrison, a large black banner as high as six meters high stood high, with a golden flying tiger embroidered on the banner. When the wind blew, the flying tiger in the dusk seemed to be alive.
Next to the black banner, there is a gorgeous tent. There is a soft jade bed in the center of the tent. Qi Yunxiao, wearing a brocade robe, sat upright on it, constantly pinching the magic trick. Along with Qi Yunxiao's magic trick, the flying tiger on the big banner outside the tent emits a faint golden light, which a mortal cannot detect, but is enough to scare ordinary beasts. The waves are centered on the big banner and spread to all directions. In the four directions three miles away from the tribe, there is a three-meter-high flag. When this wave spreads to the banner, it will be strengthened again and then spread to a further place.
After casting spells for nearly a quarter of an hour, Qi Yunxiao stopped the magic trick in his hand and began to meditate and reply. As a guardian monk of the tribe, Qi Yunxiao also had many tasks that must be done while enjoying the tribe's worship. Among the many tasks, laying out beast-driven arrays for the tribe's garrison is the most basic and most important. There are many wild animals on the grasslands of the wild state. If there is no beast-driven array to drive wild animals near the tribe's garrison, if you don't pay attention, you will suffer a great loss.
However, setting up the beast-driven array is not a heavy task for Qi Yunxiao. On the one hand, it is because the beast-driven array does not need to be activated at any time, it only needs to be activated twice a day to maintain intimidation of nearby beasts. On the other hand, it is because the Jin Biao Banner outside the tent, which is the core of the formation, is a good magic weapon. Using this magic weapon to activate the beast-driven array, it saves a lot of effort. Moreover, it was already the last night in the Xiuluo Mountains. After migrating tomorrow, Qi Yunxiao no longer needs to set up the beast-driven array.
"Elder Qi, Mu Jin asks for a meeting!" After Qi Yunxiao sat quietly for half an hour, the darkness completely came, a respectful voice came from outside the tent.
"Come in." Qi Yunxiao opened his eyes, waved his hand to light the candle in the tent, and said majestic. Compared with Lu Qianming, who was usually cold and polite, Qi Yunxiao was more majestic in the tribe. After all, as the representative of the Qianniu Temple in the Stone Niu Tribe, Qi Yunxiao was better than Lu Qianming in many aspects of authority.
"Greetings to the elder. This is the copper ore that our Mu family found on the mountain these days. I heard that the elder needs it here, so my grandfather asked me to send it here." Mu Jin first bowed deeply, and then brought a bag of animal skin to Qi Yunxiao. Although he was known as the new generation of the Shiniu tribe as Mo Hua, compared to Mo Hua's arrogance, Mu Jin showed much respect in front of his elders.
"Elder Mu is intent, and I will thank him for my return." After taking the animal skin bag, he glanced at the purple ore inside, Qi Yunxiao nodded and said lightly. In the Shiniu tribe, although the Mu family had two innate masters and were considered the second family in the tribe, in terms of strength, they were far inferior to the Mo family, which held the chief's rights. In order to protect themselves and to obtain greater benefits, the Mu family invested in Qi Yunxiao. Any good gains they had to be offered to Qi Yunxiao.
"Is there anything else?" After checking the ore, Qi Yunxiao asked slightly strangely when he looked at Mu Jin who still had no intention of giving up.
"That's right. My incompetent brother was beaten and injured today. He was quite serious. I want to ask the elder for a Qi-Relief Pill..." Mu Jin hesitated for a moment, and finally said with some trepidation.
"Ask me to ask for medicine? Why don't you go to Lu Qianming?" Qi Yunxiao raised his eyebrows and said a little impatiently. As a guardian monk of the Stone Niu Tribe, Qi Yunxiao did not have much affection for Lu Qianming, an outsider. Because of Lu Qianming's appearance, many things that Qi Yunxiao could decide could be implemented after three people could discuss. Invisibly, Qi Yunxiao's rights shrank a lot. In addition, in the past, using elixirs for precious medicinal materials was also an important income for Qi Yunxiao. Now this income has basically fallen into Lu Qianming's hands. Only when paying the offerings to the temple can Qi Yunxiao share some profits. So when Mu Jin mentioned the elixir, Qi Yunxiao was a little unhappy.
"This... the one who injured Mu Tie was Moen, the apprentice whom Elder Lu valued. After he injured Mu Tie, he hid in Elder Lu's tent, so..." Mu Jin explained hesitantly.
"Moen? The little peddler who followed Lu Qianming? Didn't he have no talent for cultivation? How could he have the strength to injure Mu Tie?" Qi Yunxiao frowned and asked strangely. Because he regarded Lu Qianming as his opponent, Qi Yunxiao was very concerned about Lu Qianming's affairs, and even knew some of Moen's situation. After all, it is easy for anyone with discerning eyes to see Lu Qianming's respect for Moen.
"I don't know this either. But on the first day of the Xiuluo Mountains, Moen fought to save Mingzhu, to kill a mutant wild wolf equivalent to a level seven warrior. Later, in order to thank this kindness, the Mo family gave Moen a hundred-year-old ginseng to Moen." Mu Jin said while carefully observing Qi Yunxiao's face. With the Mu family's family's background, it was easy to take out the medicine for Mu Tie to heal. Mu Jin's main purpose this time was to inform Qi Yunxiao about the little jade ginseng. Because the Mu family knew very well that Qi Yunxiao needed the Yuandan and had been refining the medicinal materials for the Yuandan. Using this as a guide, it is very likely to impress Qi Yunxiao.
"A hundred-year-old Xiaoyu Ginseng? Are you sure?" Qi Yunxiao's eyes suddenly opened and a light flashed. Although he was not young, Qi Yunxiao was not willing to stay in his current state. He hoped to use the assistance of elixirs to improve his cultivation level one step further, and even break through the shackles of the foundation-building period to extend his life span to 150 years old. So when he heard the news of medicinal materials he had been trying hard to collect, Qi Yunxiao's performance was quite urgent.
"It can be confirmed that when the Mo family digs this little jade ginseng, there are people from our Mu family beside us." Mu Jin was secretly happy and said respectfully.
"Give it to Moen? That's equivalent to sending it to Lu Qianming. It's meaningless to talk about this at this time." After a moment of eagerness, Qi Yunxiao calmed down his mind. After weighing the pros and cons, he gave up the idea of pursuing this matter.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Lu Qianming, Qi Yunxiao also knew that if he really started, he might not be Lu Qianming's opponent. Even if he could beat Lu Qianming, considering the danger of fighting between cultivators of the same level, Qi Yunxiao would not turn against Lu Qianming for a hundred-year-old jade ginseng. What's more, with the tricky figure Mo Huai involved in it, Qi Yunxiao was naturally more cautious.
"The elder misunderstood. Elder Xiaoyu Ginseng Deer did not accept it, and it is still in Moen's hands." Mu Jin quickly explained.
"Huh? Lu Qianming officially accepted Mo En as his disciple?" Qi Yunxiao was slightly stunned and said in surprise. Generally speaking, unless the meeting gift was given when he officially accepted the disciples, under normal circumstances, this precious medicinal material would not be handed over to a person who had no innate understanding of the innate care.
"No. Moen just stayed in Elder Lu's tent for a day, and then went back to his tent. Elder Lu didn't inform anyone else." Mu Jin shook his head and said respectfully.
"Is this wrong? If Lu Qianming didn't say anything, you wouldn't have found me here. Your grandfather would have solved such a small matter long ago." Qi Yunxiao looked at Mu Jin deeply and said lightly. After more than 20 years in charge of the Shiniu tribe, Qi Yunxiao could be said to be well aware of the situation within the tribe. Mu Shang is not a gentleman, and he often does things to bully the weak. If it weren't for Lu Qianming's intimidation, the Mu family would have long snatched Xiao Yuzan without regard for their face. Mu Jin's performance is just to make himself fight against Lu Qianming and vent his anger for the Mu family.
"This..." Mu Jin was stunned for a moment, a trace of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while. In front of an old fox like Qi Yunxiao, Mu Jin was smart, but obviously couldn't resist it.
"Okay, don't be so nervous." Looking at Mu Jin with a nervous look, Qi Yunxiao waved his hand and said coldly: "I already know your purpose. Don't worry, since Lu Qianming has not made any publicity, it means he doesn't mind Moen's encountering some minor troubles. As long as people above the innate do not take action, they do not blatantly violate tribal rules and do not kill Moen, Lu Qianming will not come forward. As for what means to use, you can do it yourself. What I need is just Xiaoyu ginseng."
"In addition, because you have been so respectful in recent years, I will give you a personal advice." Looking at Mu Jin, whose expression has returned to calm, Qi Yunxiao said lightly: "Your talent is not much different from Mo Hua, but your mind is too dispersed. If you want to advance to the innate, it is best to focus your mind. You must know that the earlier you enter the innate, the greater your future achievements will be. Compared with future development, your little thoughts are actually insignificant."
................
After returning to his tent, the hungry Moen put down the Huaiyin box, stuffed a few bites of jerky, and then lay on the simple bed. He memorized a set of exercises in one day. Even if it was just a set of not complicated internal practices, it made Moen extremely tired. In addition, he was injured in the morning and had not eaten for a day, so Moen really wanted to lie down on the bed and sleep.
After lying down, Moen couldn't fall asleep immediately. It was not because of the pain still faintly on his shoulders, but because the stimulation he experienced during this day was too great. He hit Mu Tie, asked Linggen, accepted Xiaoyu Ginseng, and passed on the Hunyuan Gong. No matter which one was something Moen couldn't imagine before, but now it happened in one day. Moen still couldn't believe it.
However, although these stimulations on the surface are great, Moen can still bear them. What really makes Moen extremely excited is actually the surprises obtained after comparing Hunyuan Gong with the enhanced shaman fitness method in his mind.
According to Elder Lu’s explanation in his skills, Hunyuan Gong is just an extremely ordinary yellow-level martial art, and his combat power is not even as good as Shiniu Gong. The reason why he gave this martial art to Moen was because this martial art was fast to practice, which allowed Moen to quickly reach the innate level.
However, when I was memorizing this technique, the technique in Moen's mind automatically emerged and kept comparing it with Hunyuan Gong. Although Moen's knowledge at this time could not fully understand the differences between the techniques, Moen could basically be sure that some pranks in the name of Enhanced Shaman Fitness were consistent with Hunyuan Gong, but they were much more subtle and detailed than Hunyuan Gong. In other words, he might have obtained a piece, or even a two-step mysterious level exercise. This is definitely an unexpected surprise for Moen, who could only practice basic skills in the past, who was very powerful.
"Moen, are you here?" When Moen was thinking and excited and could not suppress, a somewhat anxious voice came from outside the tent. With the sound, Mo Bing's figure stepped into the tent.
