Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 90 Rumors
After they left Niutoushan, Tangning couldn't hold back her curiosity and followed the team from a distance for a few days to observe. The group seemed to be looking for something and didn't care about others, letting him follow.

To say that the appearance of this group of people has brought any "changes" to Jingbei.

During the search, some things were destroyed. For example, Tangning's cave was razed to the ground with a wave of their hands.

There were no casualties, but he was not a fool. When he saw three or five Jindan cultivators in groups, he knew to hide far away.

"Leaving a year ago, they have only been here for less than a month, and they have searched all the boundaries of Jingbei. I heard that they have been searching all the way from Qi, and there are still many people talking about it, but they are not I know where these people come from." Zhao Bao said

Where did it come from?In short, it wouldn't be a local cultivator in Xingang. The outside world was so big, but she was sitting at the bottom of a well. When she thought of Liu Ruhan, she didn't know where she was. Tangning felt a little disappointed when she thought about it.

The good mood that had broken through the seventh level of Qi refining fell to the bottom, and his face was unpleasant.

Seeing that his expression suddenly changed, Zhao Bao said in a low voice, "Tang Xianshi, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Tangning sighed, "Let's go! Go to the high mansion."

Gao Yingyuan was in a very good mood recently. He smiled and took out ten bottles of medicinal pills from his storage bag and said to the people in the hall, "This is what the fifth man sent over a month ago, you can take it! Two bottles per person."

The Gao family originally had seven mid-level qi-refining cultivators, except that he had broken through the seventh-level qi-refining level and Gao Cailiang, an alchemist, and five other cultivators were all at the fourth- or fifth-level qi-refining level.

In the past, in order to ensure his cultivation, he went to Fangshi to buy medicinal pills. Now Gao Cailiang has been able to refine the pills, and he can produce them for himself. Not only does he save a lot of spirit stones, but he can also sell them to the outside world. out some.

Everyone in the hall thanked them for taking the medicine pill.

"If you want to thank you, thank you fifth uncle. I don't have the ability to refine medicine pills. I told the fifth one to try to protect your medicine pill consumption." Gao Yingyuan said.

There are nine brothers in his generation in the Gao family, only three of them have spiritual roots, and several people in the hall are descendants of nephews. Jingbei's spiritual energy is thin, and it is not easy to practice. How much does it matter.

"Master, Master Tang has arrived outside the house and said he wants to see the master." The old butler walked in and said.

"Oh, please come in quickly. Forget it, I'll go meet you! You guys follow along too. This time, the fifth brother was able to refine the pills smoothly. Tangning helped a lot. In the future, we might have to rely on him for the supply of herbs." Gao Yingyuan led the Gao family to the door and greeted warmly; "Mr. Tang is here, please come in."

The two sat down in the inner hall, and Gao Yingyuan said, "I haven't seen each other for a few years, and Director Tang's cultivation has improved further, so he will be leaving Jingbei soon! If anything happens to the Gao family, I hope to take care of him. "

Tangning once said that she would eventually be transferred back to the sect. At that time, it was just a prevarication, an excuse to justify learning alchemy, but Gao Yingyuan had always believed it.

"Not so fast, I'm afraid it will take a while."

"Thank you, Mr. Tang for the trouble of the fifth, and the Gao family will keep it in mind. If there is a dispatch in the future, just give an order. The fifth has said it in front of me several times. If it wasn't for the supply of spirit medicine from Mr. Tang, he would never have It is possible to master the many subtle ways of refining the Wanling Pill so quickly."

Over the past few years, Tangning has sent Gao Cailiang some old medicinal herbs on and off several times. Although the two do not have the name of mentor and apprentice, they have a real teacher and apprenticeship. Therefore, when Gao Cailiang found him through Zhao Bao several times, he agreed. , it's just a little effort.

Besides, Gao Cailiang is also a good person. He is open and upright and has no heart, and he can be regarded as giving him all the money.

"I hope fellow Daoist Gao doesn't spread it out. After all, it violates the rules of the sect. If everyone knows it, Tang will not be able to explain it."

"Understood, I wonder what Director Tang ordered this time?"

"This time I came to Gaofu for the purpose of Bigu Pill. The four-year turn over of materials is about to expire. Zongmen will send someone to collect them in the next few days. The Gao family's task of [-] Bigu Pills a year should be completed. Bar!"

"I have already collected the [-] Bigu Pills from the first three years. They are in the palace. The ones refined this year are still stored in various alchemy rooms. I will send someone to collect them, Si'er." Gao Yingyuan shouted.

Gao Si entered from the outside: "What did my father call me?"

"Go and hand over the [-] bigu pills in the mansion to Director Tang. In addition, the [-] bigu pills this year will be collected from various alchemy rooms immediately. Go now."

"Yes." Gao Si answered the order and left.

"Mr. Tang, please stay for a while."

Tangning nodded, took a sip of tea and asked, "How is Daoist Gao Cailiang, is he still in the alchemy room? I haven't been there for a long time."

“老五平素无论炼丹修行都在炼丹室里，甚少回高府，现在掌握了纨灵丹的炼制技巧，更是如痴如狂，一心一意扑在丹药之道上。”高应元笑道： "To be honest, every time I see him, I feel a little scared in my heart, and even want to hide, because as soon as he returns to the mansion, he will definitely come to ask for Lingshi, and it will be a large sum of money at a time. Keep pestering you until you give it. It’s not easy to raise an alchemist in a small family like ours! It costs a lot.”

Tangning could understand, not to mention anything else, he just said that while he was learning how to make Qi Yang Dan, he didn't know how many herbs he had spent.

"Alchemy is indeed a very expensive craft, and the initial cost is particularly huge, but as long as one is cultivated, the profit made by the alchemist is also very considerable. Like your brother, should you consider accepting a disciple? The inheritance of alchemy skills?"

"This is naturally something to consider. Isn't there a janitor in the alchemy room of the younger brother? That is the orphan of my ninth brother, but he is still young at this time, so I let him do chores in the alchemy room and experience the experience. , I will have a certain understanding of the way of medicine pills under the influence of my ears and eyes, and I will officially teach him the art of medicine pills when he is older and enter the practice, and the younger brother also came here back then."

"Oh, so that's the case." Tangning wondered how she had placed a boy with spiritual roots in the alchemy room to guard the door.

"Director Tang, do you know where the mysterious monks came from last year? What is the purpose of coming here?"

"I don't know anything about it, I'm just instructed to let them search."

"Oh? Don't you know?" Gao Yingyuan muttered.
Tangning looked at him and seemed to know something, "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Gao knows their origins?"

"I just heard that since the group of monks came, a gossip in Jingbei quickly spread, saying that this group of people came to search for treasures from heaven and earth. Someone once saw a beam of treasure in Jingbei in the middle of the night. Climbing into the sky, it's fleeting."

Tangning smiled and said, "I'm afraid this is a false rumor, why haven't I heard of it before? Everyone knows that their stance is here to hunt for treasure, and even if there is a rare treasure, it has nothing to do with us and was taken away by them long ago. "

"That's true. Heaven and earth spiritual treasures are worthy of those who have virtue. Even if there are, our Gao family is absolutely unworthy."

The so-called virtuous person, the prerequisite is to have the corresponding strength, even with the strength of the Gao family, dare to covet the heaven and earth spirit treasures?Even if Lingbao himself falls from the gate, he may not dare to take it.

Gao Yingyuan still sees this very clearly.

While the two were chatting, Gao Si came in and handed Tangning three storage bags, all of which were [-] bigu pills.

Tangning opened the storage bag and took a look. There were more than [-] pill bottles neatly placed inside.He took out a bottle and checked it, and a bottle of thirty bigu pills was not much or not.

After about two hours, the bigu pills in the alchemy room were also collected. Gao Si sorted them out and put them in the storage bag.

Tangning took a little inventory, put away the storage bag, bid farewell to Gao Yingyuan and returned to the Jingbei mansion.

Zhao Guang, Qin You, and Zhu Yu saw him stepping on the sword from a distance, and they hurried up to meet him.

Tangning stopped in the courtyard and retracted her flying sword, "Lingsha Momo, Mysterious Copper Stone, and Red Grass Juice are all ready!"

"It has been collected, and I will wait for the immortal envoy to collect it."

"I haven't been here for a long time. You can accompany me to visit various industrial areas tomorrow morning."

Every four years, Gan Yizong sends people down the mountain to collect materials, and he also inspects the industrial resources of various places. Although most of them are in a form, if they do it too much, it will not look good.

For example, if the copperite iron ore is obviously over-mined, it will be unreasonable if it is much higher than the amount mined in the past four years.

Therefore, Tangning needed to go down and have a look, at least to be sure.

"Yes." Zhao Guang and the others responded.

Early the next morning, Tangning led a group of people to inspect the industrial areas in various counties, and asked a few supervisors some specific questions.

It is said that what is good for the top is necessary for the bottom. Since Tangning was appointed as the director of Jingbei, every time she came to inspect various industries, she had to ask some questions about this. Zhao Guang and several others also found out his background, so she warned the supervisor. , Don't be greedy for these small advantages, so the remuneration of migrant workers is also quite a lot.

The reason why Tangning asked these questions every time was because he knew how hard it was for these common people to get up and work in the dark every day, just to have a full meal. unacceptable?At least under his jurisdiction, such things cannot be tolerated.
