Bang——

Qiu Xiaoji looked at Li Lijun in a daze with a pale face. He couldn't believe what she just said. He didn't even bother to pick up the copper bowl that fell on the ground.

Qiu Sanweng, who was standing at the top of the stairs, frowned slightly, and his figure on crutches looked more rickety.

Li Lijun looked innocent and ignorant, looking at Qiu Xiaoji with puzzled eyes: "Sister Qiu, what's wrong with you? Did I say something wrong just now?"

"No...it's nothing..." Qiu Xiaoji woke up, lowered his head to pick up the copper bowl with twinkling eyes, and looked back at his grandfather in a panic, "Just...just now, what the boss said...is it true?"

"Of course it's true." Li Lijun said casually, "I heard it from an acquaintance. He reminded me to be careful when walking around the Qinling Mountains. If I encounter another quarrel between the Zhenxian Temple and the Shangqing Sect, I will definitely

Don't get close, stay as far away as possible to avoid getting involved in trouble. The people of Zhenxian Temple have long wanted to bring bad luck to the Shangqing Sect, but they can't find their lair in Guanzhong, so they are trying to think of a way

What about fishing?

No matter who you are, as long as you have contact with people from the Qing sect, you may be targeted by them. At this time, we unrelated outsiders should of course stay as far away from them as possible. Otherwise, once you are caught

I think Zhenxian Guan is an accomplice of the Shangqing Sect, and I don’t know what the fate will be! My master is far away, and the masters are not around, so they can’t support me, so of course I have to be more careful."

She looked at Qiu Sanweng: "If I want to go out to visit old friends or purchase goods, I must be careful and try not to interact with people from the Qing sect. I know you have friends in the Shangqing sect, but

Now is not the time to meet them. If someone from the True Immortal Temple finds your friend through you and does harm to him, how will the old man meet his friends in the future?"

As if Li Lijun just mentioned it casually, she turned around and walked into the backyard with the earthenware pot on the stove. She had just excused herself to ask Qiu Xiaoji to help stew a pot of soup, and then went to the kitchen to chat with her. What should I say now?

After all was said and done, she had to pull off the trick before she could leave.

She returned to the backyard, but Qiu Xiaoji stood blankly in front of the stove, looking uneasy.

She walked up to her grandfather and asked in a low voice: "Aweng, what my boss said...can it be true?"

Qiu Sanweng coughed twice and said lightly: "Xuan Ying came to see her today, chatted for a long time, and then left happily. With Xuanying's character, if he could get anything from her

There are a lot of benefits, and it is indeed possible that she will be kind enough to give her a few words." It is estimated that the young boss also guessed what his old friend was planning to do, so he found an excuse to remind him to prevent him from falling into the trap of the True Immortal Temple.

The old man took this kindness seriously and will surely repay it in the future!

Qiu Sanweng told his granddaughter in a low voice: "Don't tell anyone what our boss told us, and don't tell anyone what Xuanying said. Our boss has a good relationship with Xuanying, and we can get the truth from him from time to time."

We can also benefit from the news about the Immortal Temple, so we won’t foolishly jump into the hole dug by others.”

"Then..." Qiu Xiaoji bit her lip, "Aweng just told his boss that he was going to collect a batch of goods from a familiar friend. Now...are you still going?"

"Go, why don't you go?" Qiu Sanweng smiled slightly, "You always have to do a complete show. Just now your Uncle Guan passed by the door, and you must have heard what I said to my boss. If I don't go out tonight

, wouldn’t it arouse suspicion? It’s not that I can’t trust you, Uncle Guan, but... there’s really no need to talk about it. I only said that I was going to find an acquaintance, and I didn’t say that I was going to meet someone from the Shangqing sect, but

It’s just a change of destination.”

Qiu Xiaoji secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Aweng is right. In fact, you can also buy spiritual materials from other friends, and you don't have to follow the path of the Qing sect. Their family is currently in serious trouble with the True Immortal Temple.

Well, we'd better stay away from them, and when the situation changes, it will be the same if you find a way to contact them again."

Qiu Sanweng didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that if Zhenxian Temple really found the Shangqing Sect's stronghold in Guanzhong and destroyed it, it would be impossible for the Shangqing Sect to send a large number of disciples to Guanzhong in a short period of time.

If he wanted to contact his old friends, he would have to either go to Bashu himself or ask someone else to send him a message. But with his current physical condition and the fact that he was under the surveillance of the True Immortal Temple, it was impossible to do the former, and the latter.

I don't know if I can find a reliable messenger, so it would be more practical to meet my old friends directly in Guanzhong.

If the Shangqing Sect really sent four foundation builders to Guanzhong to handle matters, there must be his friends in need among them. If he misses this opportunity, it will be difficult for him to meet his old friends in the future! The two have broken off contact for more than ten years.

, I am afraid that the other party does not know that he has left the spiritual mine under the jurisdiction of Zhenxian Guan, let alone what important information he has collected on the territory of Zhenxian Guan, which can be of great help to the Shangqing Sect.

of!

Qiu Sanweng squeezed the crutch in his hand tightly. He knew that he was going to take a big risk. However, he must contact his friends from the Shangqing Sect as soon as possible. Some things cannot be delayed. If he misses this opportunity, he

I still don’t know when the next opportunity will come, let alone whether I can wait until that day!

The day passed peacefully. As night fell, the Cultivation Market became more and more lively.

Although there are no particularly attractive goods in Li Lijun's newly opened grocery store, and more than ten kinds of primary processed products have long been sold out, the sign for purchasing various elixirs and spiritual materials is still there, and new ones will be attracted from time to time.

Customers come to inquire about prices, and occasionally regular customers come to make second or third transactions.

However, in general, the business at the end of their street is not as good as that on the street. The area in the middle of the street is prosperous, and the blacksmith shop shut down early. It is said that his family's business has not been very good in the past two days, and he has only received one order.

At this time, an old man with a half-white beard and hair walked into Li Lijun's grocery store and chatted with Qiu Sanweng. Then the latter called his granddaughter Qiu Xiaoji to come and see the store, and he went out with the old man.

He opened the door and left the Cultivation Market directly.

Qiu Xiaoji watched her grandfather leave with some worry. Suddenly she caught a glimpse of a thin man in a gray-blue robe following the two old men out of the market. His heart suddenly sank and his face turned pale.

A customer came to ask about the price, and she answered a little absent-mindedly, almost making him angry. Fortunately, the customer wanted to sell medicinal materials, and there was no store on the street that offered a higher price than here, so in the end

Still reluctantly sold the goods to her.

Qiu Xiaoji waited at the counter uneasily until an hour later, when her grandfather Qiu Sanweng's figure appeared at the entrance of the Cultivation Market again, she breathed a sigh of relief and greeted him with a smile involuntarily: "Aweng

…”

Qiu Sanweng winked at his granddaughter and stopped him to prevent her granddaughter from leaking in front of the two "tails" behind him. Then he smiled and walked straight through the store to the back patio and asked Li Lijun.

The boss reported good news: "The old man just received a batch of the starlight rocks and meteorite iron that the boss wanted. They are of high quality and low price, and there will continue to be supplies in the future. The boss no longer has to worry about the lack of these two kinds of spiritual minerals!

"

Really? That’s great news!

Li Lijun looked outside the shop, where the two disciples of Zhenxian Temple turned around and left with angry expressions. Then she looked at Qiu Sanweng, who had a smile on his face, and finally felt relieved.
