Taoist students

Chapter 27
Three days later, in a quaint attic in the depths of Miaoyinyuan.

A girl in purple clothes was sitting cross-legged on the bed. The girl's face was breathtakingly beautiful, but her complexion was unusually cold, as if she was not close to strangers.

In front of the girl, there is a miniature phoenix the size of a fist. The phoenix has a feather crown on its head and a colorful flying tail. Its feathers are even more gorgeous, and it is flying up and down.

Not long after, the girl's white teeth were lightly opened, and she was chanting a spell in a low voice. At the same time, the flying posture of the colorful phoenix stopped suddenly, and its wings were shaken, and it sank into the girl's eyebrows in the blink of an eye. A phoenix imprint is formed between them.

"Chirp!"

In an instant, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, raised her head and opened her mouth, and let out a loud and clear phoenix cry, and only then did the phoenix imprint on her eyebrows disappear slowly.

Looking at the girl's temperament again, it seems that a subtle change has also taken place. The originally cold demeanor now has a more ethereal feeling.

"It's finally done!"

At this time, even the girl's icy face showed a hint of surprise. If someone was here, they would definitely sigh, this is what is called a smile.

……

Taiyi Taoist Palace, Nanchuifang City.

The square market here is one of the three major square markets of Taiyi Dao Palace, located in the southeast corner.

Nanchuifang City is not too big, there are only two roads for several miles, and there are many shops on both sides of the street.

At this moment, in the middle of the street, there is a young Xiaodao in Taoist robes and holding a dust whisk, walking around like a stroll in a garden.

This trail is none other than Dongfang Mo.

After Ge Yun defeated Zu Nianqi a few days ago, Dongfang Mo returned to Miaoyin Academy after gathering with Liangzi Ma and others for two days.

From Liang Zima and others, Dongfang Mo learned that there are three major squares in the palace gate, where ordinary disciples exchange items or spirit stones, so he went to Nanchuifang City, which is the closest to Miaoyinyuan, by himself the next day. change.

Looking at both sides of the street, in addition to many shops, there are also many disciples of the Taoist Palace directly placing items on the ground. Talismans, medicine pills, animal skins and various materials are all available, just waiting for people with insight to come to inquire .

Compared with valuables such as magic instruments, most of them are in the shops on both sides.

Looking at the dazzling array of things, Dongfang Mo didn't intend to stop to check. Instead, he walked along the street to the intersection, turned left, and stopped in front of the third shop.

Seeing the three big characters "Baibaozhai" on the door plaque of the shop, Dongfang Mo nodded and walked into it.

This shop is not too big, and most of them are spirit animal fur, materials and other goods.

When he saw someone coming in at the door, a Taoist priest with a naive figure in the shop greeted him with a smiling face.

The Taoist priest was only sixteen or seventeen years old, with a short and fat body, a big round face, and a gleam of light flashed in his small eyes from time to time, giving people a feeling of being good at calculating.

"This fellow Taoist needs something!"

Looking at Dongfang Mo who was looking around in the shop, the fat Taoist said kindly.

"I want to see the storage bag, you have it here."

Dongfang Mo was outspoken.

Hearing this, the fat Taoist narrowed his eyes, secretly thinking that there was a big business coming, and said quickly:

"Yes, yes, there are all kinds of storage bags in this studio, but I don't know what price this fellow Taoist needs."

"What are the prices!"

"To tell you the truth, the storage bags in this studio are priced according to the size of the space. For a space of half a foot, you need a hundred spirit stones, for a space of one foot, two hundred spirit stones... the largest space is nine feet, and you need seven hundred spirit stones. "

"This...is a bit expensive!"

Hearing this, Dongfang Mo couldn't help frowning. You must know that all the spirit stones on his body are only two or thirty yuan.This is all left over from Liangzima's group.

"Fellow Daoists don't know that this storage bag needs to be made of at least the fur of a spirit beast with a foundational cultivation level, because only after reaching the foundation establishment stage, the spirit beast's body will form its own space, and the animal skin itself will have a certain space attribute."

"However, the spirit beasts of the same level are much stronger than my human race. How can a spirit beast with a foundation-building stage cultivation base be easily hunted and killed? The danger is not humane. And even if you get the materials , the post-production will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, so the hundreds of spirit stones here are really not expensive."

The fat Taoist explained.

Dongfang Mo couldn't help but nodded, secretly thinking that what the Taoist said was not unreasonable.

"Your Excellency should be a friend of Daoist Yue Laoshan. To be honest, Xiaodao was introduced by Senior Brother Ge Yunge. Senior Brother Ge said that as long as you report his name, the price..."

Dongfang Mo's eyes rolled, and he couldn't help looking at the fat Taoist priest with deep meaning.

Hearing this, the fat Taoist named Yue Laoshan narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but look up and down Dongfang Mo.

"That's right, this is Yue Laoshan, who is called Yue Laosan. I don't know how to call this fellow Taoist?"

Third Yue asked.

"I'm using Dongfang Mo."

"It turned out to be Junior Brother Dongfang. Since Senior Brother Ge introduced him, it's easy to say about the price. Based on the original basis, Junior Brother Dongfang only needs to give [-]% of the spirit stones." Yue Laosan said.

Seeing this, Dongfang Mo thought to himself that Ge Yun's name was really useful.

But even if only [-]% of the spirit stones are given, the smallest half-foot-sized storage bag needs [-] spirit stones, and he can't afford it.

Immediately, thoughts raced through Dongfang Mo's mind, and after a short pause, he looked at Laosan Yue with an unfathomable smile.

Seeing Dongfang Mo's unclear smile, Yue Laosan felt a little unnatural.

"I don't know if Senior Brother Yue has a Taoist companion?"

"This...not for the time being."

Yue Laosan didn't know why Dongfang Mo mentioned this matter, but he answered truthfully.

"Then I wonder if Senior Brother Yue has someone he likes?"

Dongfang Mo continued to ask.

Hearing this, even Yue Laosan claimed to be an old man, but he couldn't help being horrified. Could it be that Dongfang Mo wanted to sell his appearance in exchange for a storage bag?Seeing Dongfang Mo's wretched smile again, he felt that his guess was indistinguishable, and he immediately looked horrified.

"Junior Brother Dongfang, if you... have something to say, speak up!"

Sweat was faintly visible on Yue Laosan's forehead.

"Hehe... To tell you the truth, Senior Brother Yue, I am a new student at Miaoyin Academy. You know the so-called near water and towers first, Senior Brother Yue..."

Dongfang Mo laughed.

Hearing this, Yue Laosan was taken aback for a moment, then narrowed his small eyes again, and when he looked at Dongfang Mo, his round face was instantly filled with a smile.

"It turns out that Junior Brother Dongfang is the one who has been spreading rumors a few days ago. The third male disciple of Miaoyin Academy has lost his eyesight."

Yue Laosan cupped his hands.

"you are welcome!"

Dongfang Mo returned the gift.

"I don't know how Junior Brother Dongfang recognized Brother Ge Yunge?"

Yue Laosan was puzzled.

"It's not a secret. In fact, I not only know Senior Brother Ge, but also Senior Brother Ma from Danmai, Brother Huo Ye from Qimai, and Senior Brother Mu Xuanzi from Nanlu Pavilion."

"The reason is that at the beginning I was just doing a small favor to the senior brothers. I didn't want the senior brothers to help me. Brother Ge specially introduced me to Brother Yue's Baibaozhai."

"Oh? I don't know what's busy?"

Yue Laosan speculated vaguely in his heart, still curious.

"Hehe, it's really nothing, but Brother Yue should know that my Miaoyin Academy has strict rules and ordinary disciples are not allowed to enter, and I just passed the jade slips to each other a few times for a few senior brothers and a few senior sisters in the courtyard, so I can be grateful You brothers have taken good care of me."

"It's so, Junior Brother is indeed a kind and charitable person."

Yue Laosan secretly thought that it was so, looking at Dongfang Mo, his eyes were already narrowed with a smile.

"That's right, I hit it off with Senior Brother Yue today. If Senior Brother Yue needs help from my junior brother, as long as it is within the scope of my junior brother's ability, even if I say it bluntly, I will never refuse my junior brother."

Dongfang Mo patted Yue Laosan on the shoulder, and said with a smile.

"It's easy to talk about. Since the younger brother is a student of the Miaoyin Academy, then I really want to inquire about something. The younger brother sat down and said, wait for the younger brother to brew you a cup of spiritual tea."

Yue Laosan turned around and led Dongfang Mo to the wooden table on one side. With a wave of his hand, he put away all the original tea sets on the wooden table. After a while, a flame shot out, and it was slowly cooking under the dendrobium. After half a stick of incense, he picked up the dendrobium, poured each of them a cup with a delicate teacup, and said:
"This Hualing tea is not a great treasure, so I will drink it as soon as I can, so don't dislike it."

Yue Laosan offered the teacup with both hands, and said lightly.

Seeing this, Dongfang Mo quickly took it, and then put it to his mouth and took a sip.

Just wait for the warm tea to enter, and immediately feel a burst of fragrance overflowing, more than that, the tea flows into the abdomen, and a faint aura flows to the limbs and veins, which feels refreshing for a while.

“Good tea!”

Dongfang Mo gave a compliment, then drank it in one gulp, pricked his mouth, and looked at Laosan Yue with a smile on his face.

"Wherever it is, as long as the younger brother doesn't dislike it."

Third Yue poured another cup for Dongfang Mo, then put down the dendrobium in his hand and said:

"I wonder if Fairy Yutang from your courtyard is doing well?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Mo secretly thought that a good show was coming. Although he had never heard of Yutang's name, he still said without changing his expression:
"You said Senior Sister Yutang, I met you in the Pavilion of Things a few days ago, everything is fine, Senior Brother Yue is worried."

"What about Senior Sister Qu Yao?"

"Ok?"

Dongfang Mo couldn't help but be puzzled, but still said:
"Senior Sister Qu Yao has been proficient in cultivation these past few days, except for the one meeting a few days ago, she should be locked up in the cave these few days."

"Senior Sister Fulan... Senior Sister Nishang... Senior Sister Huang Ying... Senior Sister Mu Ziyu... How are you doing recently?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Mo's eyelids twitched wildly, secretly thinking that Yue Laosan was really fraternal, and drank the spiritual tea in the cup in one breath, and then said slowly:
"It's all good...it's all good..."

Seeing this, Yue Laosan chuckled and filled Dongfang Mo again.

"To be honest, I have great admiration for several senior sisters, especially Fairy Feng Luoye from your courtyard. I had the honor to meet Fairy Feng once. The day Fairy Feng wore a yew tree, she was truly astonished."

Yue Laosan couldn't help revealing a reminiscing look.

Dongfang Mo rolled his eyes, and thought to himself that not only have I seen a yew leaf, I have also seen a naked leaf, but I only dare to think about it in my heart.

"Recently, I heard that your courtyard has a new junior sister named Nangong Yurou. Although junior sister Nangong is not very old, but with her appearance, she will definitely be a peerless arrogance who will not lose to Fairy Feng in the future."

"That's right, Senior Sister Nangong entered Miaoyin Academy with me back then, and I still have a certain amount of friendship with her in private."

Dongfang Mo picked up the teacup again, drank it by himself, and then unceremoniously picked up the dendrobium and poured it for himself. Anyway, this spiritual tea is not given to the spirit stone, so it is not worth drinking.

Seeing Dongfang Mo's movements, Yue Laosan's eyelids twitched, and his heart ached.

However, he is also a shrewd person, knowing the reason why he is reluctant to let his children catch wolves, so he continued:

"Then I don't know if the younger brother can also bring a letter to the older brother and hand it to the senior sister Fulan in your courtyard... Senior sister Nishang... Senior sister Huang Ying... and..."

Hearing this, Dongfang Mo chuckled:
"It's natural, as I said just now, Senior Brother Yue and I hit it off right away, so such small things are naturally not a problem."

"but……"

"But what?" Yue Laosan was puzzled.

"But according to the market, Senior Sister Fulan needs so much..."

As he spoke, Dongfang Mo dipped his finger in the tea, drew a horizontal line and a vertical line on the wooden table, and looked at Laosan Yue with a comprehensible expression.

"Senior Sister Huang Ying, it's this number..."

Dongfang Mo drew the words "fifteen" on the table again.

This time, it was finally Yue Laosan's turn to secretly scold Dongfang Mo for being shameless, saying that he would never refuse to help, it was all nonsense, but there was still a kind and friendly smile on his face.

"Say it well!"

Seeing this, Dongfang Mo nodded, knowing that this kind of bullying happened once in a while.

"Senior Sister Mu Ziyu wants this number..."

"As for Senior Sister Feng Luoyefeng, tsk tsk, that's a big deal, at least this number..."

As Dongfang Mo uttered the names one by one, the hands continued to move, and then looked at the numbers written with spirit tea on the wooden table, Yue Laosan felt parched for a while, if he sent letters to all these senior sisters, It cannot be taken without hundreds of spirit stones.

"As for Senior Sister Nangong, let's treat it as a courteous reciprocity and run errands for free."

At the end, Dongfang Mo finally stopped moving and picked up the Dendrobium again.

"You have to know that since the last time, Senior Brother Liang and others have often received missions with my senior sister from the Miaoyin Institute. Recently, the missions may be frequent, and they haven't sent me a message, hey."

Dongfang Mo naturally saw Yue Laosan's solemn expression, and after drinking the spiritual tea in his cup, he seemed to be talking to himself.

Hearing this, there was a gleam of light in Yue Laosan's eyes, but then it dimmed again. After thinking for a while, he finally gritted his teeth, then got up and walked to the side cabinet, and stretched out his hand to put a Maitreya Buddha statue the size of a human head on the grid. Turned half a circle.

After only hearing the sound of "click", a dark compartment was opened behind the cabinet. Yue Laosan reached out and took out a dark and thick storage bag from the dark compartment, and after turning the Buddha statue back half a circle, Then he turned around and put the storage bag on the wooden table.

"Forget it, this is just a storage bag with a space of nine feet. It is the largest one in my Baibaozhai. It is made of spirit beast materials in the late stage of foundation establishment. Today, it is as if I have made a friend with Junior Brother Dongfang. Bao also hopes that the younger brother will not refuse."

"How embarrassing is this? If I accept it, it seems that I am a bit snobby, but if I don't accept it, I will definitely let my brother feel cold. How can I make my brother feel cold when we see each other as friends? Then my brother will be disrespectful."

Dongfang Mo was overjoyed, he didn't expect that Yue Laosan was richer than Ge Yun, and he took out such a storage bag worth seven hundred spirit stones as soon as he said it, so he stretched out his hand and laughed twice before grabbing the storage bag bag.

Seeing this, Yue Laosan secretly scolded Dongfang Mo for being too ugly, but he said: "Then junior brother, look, this is a matter of sending a letter to all senior sisters...?"

"Brother's words are too far-fetched. You just need to describe the jade slips. The younger brother is waiting here. When I go back today, I will hand over the jade slips to the senior sisters. If the senior sister has something to say, I will come to visit tomorrow. , pass on the words of Senior Sister."

Dongfang Mo Dayi waved his hands lingeringly, as if such matters were already within his scope.

Hearing this, Yue Laosan finally nodded, hoping that the storage bag of hundreds of spirit stones was not in vain, so he began to take out jade slips and stick them on his forehead to slowly draw.

For a full quarter of an hour, Yue Laosan drew a jade slip worth nearly 30 yuan, and then he stopped with some unsatisfactory intentions.

"I'll leave this matter to Junior Brother Dongfang. If you need anything in the future, or if you want to trade any materials, just come to my Baibaozhai. My Yue Laosan will definitely give Junior Brother the most satisfactory price."

"It's easy to say, then Junior Brother won't bother Senior Brother Yue Qingxiu, I will come back tomorrow." Dongfang Mo got up and was about to leave.

"Then I won't keep you as a brother, and the junior brother will go all the way."

Yue Laosan was also anxious, wishing that Dongfang Mo would hand over the jade slips to the senior sisters immediately.

"Okay, let me toast to senior brother!"

Finally, Dongfang Mo picked up the teacup and drank the last sip of spirit tea in the dendrobium.

Before leaving, he weighed a red stone on the cabinet in his hand, then pinched it in his hand, pretending to clasp his fists:

"Senior brother Yue doesn't need to send it away, I will wait for the good news of my brother tomorrow."

Finally, he put the stone into his cuff without a trace, and then disappeared into the crowd swaggeringly.

After Dongfang Mo left, Yue Laosan looked at the empty dendrobium on the wooden table, and remembered the red iron essence that Dongfang Mo had left just now. The two add up to no less than dozens of spirit stones, and his heart aches. At the same time, he also realized that this kid was too hair-plucking, greedy, and thick-skinned, but he could only turn around and hope that Dongfang Mo could bring him some news tomorrow.

……

When Dongfang Mo passed through the crowd and was about to leave Fangshi, a slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind:
"Oriental bull nose!"

Dongfang Mo turned around and saw a young girl in white clothes with a delicate face in her early ten years looking at him with a serious expression.

"Hey, Senior Sister Nangong, what a coincidence."

Dongfang Mo wondered in his heart why he met Nangong Niangpi here, and she looked gloomy, Dongfang Mo felt a sense of indecision for no reason.

"Who did you just say had a certain friendship with you?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Mo secretly screamed in his heart, but he pretended to be puzzled and said:
"Why can't I understand what Senior Sister Nangong is saying?"

"Hmph, don't be so pretentious. I heard what you said in Baibaozhai and that fat man just now. In your eyes, other senior sisters are worth dozens of spirit stones, but I, Nangong Yurou, are worth nothing. Let you get free!" Running errands!"

Nangong Yurou's complexion was extremely ugly.

"If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll tell the senior sisters about it, or tell Elder Zhong directly!"

Nangong Yurou turned her hands behind her back, took two steps closer, and looked at Dongfang Mo with a gleam in her eyes.

However, in Dongfang Mo's view, Nangong Yurou was pretending to be old-fashioned, but she had a different look. Although she was a bit fierce, her looks would not be much worse than that Fengniangpi when she grew up.

"Senior Sister Nangong, please take another step to speak."

Seeing this, Dongfang Mo knew that he couldn't hide, so he could only pull Nangong Yurou aside. After Nangong Yurou glared at him in shame, Dongfang Mo took out something from the animal skin bag on his waist , stuffed it into Nangong Yurou's hands without any explanation.

"A small gift is not a respect, and I hope that the senior sister will not refuse it. For the sake of it, I will treat this matter as a senior sister and keep it a secret for the younger brother."

Dongfang Mo whispered next to Nangong Yurou's ear.

Nangong Yurou blushed slightly when she felt the hot air from the Oriental Ink on her neck.

But when he looked at the half-drained Lingshi in the palm of his hand, his face suddenly sank and water dripped out.

I am a newcomer, if you think it is good, please give me more favorites and recommendations, thanks to the little tail Taoist friends born in the [-]s for the reward.
