Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

Chapter 73 Going to Medicine Cloud Oasis

Jiang Qiong traveled for several days and arrived at Qin County.

Compared with Yuling County, the Qin County controlled by the Qin family has not been invaded by thieves and is relatively stable.

There is an endless stream of pedestrians on the street, row upon row of restaurants and shops, and vendors setting up stalls warmly greeting customers, creating a lively and prosperous atmosphere.

"There was no attack, Qin County seemed peaceful."

Jiang Qiong entered Qin County and went straight to Juque Mountain.

He found the congratulatory message at the pavilion halfway up the mountain.

"Brother Qiong, here!"

He Yan shouted enthusiastically when he saw Jiang Qiong.

At this time, there were two people beside He Yan, one of whom was He Qingyun and the other was Li Li.

When the two of them saw Jiang Qiong, they greeted her politely.

"Brother Qiong, you really scared me to death some time ago. You never responded. I thought you..."

The last few words of the congratulations were not spoken.

But the meaning is obvious.

There was no reply for a long time, which made him subconsciously think that Jiang Qiong might have died due to a market disaster.

I was feeling a little depressed at the time.

"Ha, I was lucky and escaped. However, because I was seriously injured, I hid in a remote place to recuperate and didn't notice your transmission."

Jiang Qiong said with a smile.

"That's it." He Yan said with a confused look on his face.

He recalled this disaster and said in a slightly sad tone:

"Speaking of which, Yuling County was attacked by bandits and Shadowfall natives this time, which is really unexpected."

He Yan sighed and said: "Fortunately, I am a patrol guard in Beicheng District, and I took a rest that day. I saw that something was not going well, so I ran away fast enough, otherwise I might have been killed in the disaster."

A few days ago, Yulingfang City was the first to be attacked. He Qingyun had inside information and immediately raised the alarm.

She returned to Beicheng District urgently and ran away with He Yan and Li Li who were shopping.

Finally, he escaped safely to Qin County.

I wanted to wait until the situation calmed down before going back.

Unexpectedly, Yuling Sect suffered heavy losses in this battle, and the main sect of Baigu Oasis besieged Leixiaomen again.

He Qingyun realized that the situation was tense, so he asked an acquaintance to get several pieces of spirit boat tokens, and asked He Yan to go to other oases to avoid the limelight.

"Unexpected disasters come and go, and no one can imagine them."

Jiang Qiong shook her head and asked, "What are your plans next?"

He Yan said without thinking: "Qingyun said that we can't stay in Bixia Oasis any longer, so we asked fellow Taoist Li Li and me to go to Yaoyun Oasis to find a job that is relaxing and stable."

Speaking of which.

The congratulatory tone changed and he said: "Brother Qiong, why don't you come with us."

"Let's go to Yaoyun Oasis together."

Going to a strange place will inevitably lead to some discomfort. He Yan thought of taking Jiang Qiong with him so that he could avoid the limelight and take care of each other.

Medicine Cloud Oasis

You're on the same road as me

Jiang Qiong's eyes lit up slightly and she said with a smile: "Okay, let's go to Yaoyun Oasis together."

He Qingyun heard this, walked over, took out a token and handed it to Jiang Qiong, saying: "In half a day, the Qin family's spirit boat will go to Yaoyun Oasis, so be careful on the way."

Although He Qingyun had a smile on his face when he spoke, it was obviously a forced smile, and his true mood was slightly depressed and sad.

The Yuling Sect in Bixia Oasis encountered disaster.

Some of the direct relatives and elders she met died in the service, and the loss of acquaintances naturally made her depressed.

In the past two days, I haven't been able to recover.

"Fellow Taoist Qingyun, won't we go to Yaoyun Oasis together?"

Jiang Qiong took the token and wanted to return the gift as a thank you, but He Qingyun was adamant and refused to take it, so she had to give up.

"Accepted by the Yuling Sect, I will go to the main sect in Baigu Oasis next."

He Qingyun said softly.

He Yan's lips moved, but he hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Pay attention to your own safety."

He Qingyun smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry."

During the conversation, several disciples of the Yuling Sect came over, seemingly looking for He Qingyun.

"I go first."

He Qingyun glanced at several Yuling Sect acquaintances, then said goodbye to Jiang Qiong and others, and turned to leave.

He Yan looked at his sister's back, silent, with a worried look on his face.

Seeing this scene, Li Li pondered for a moment and comforted her: "Sister Qingyun is smart and smart. If you go to the Yuling sect, you may be able to make a career, so don't worry too much."

"I hope so." He Yan shook his head and sat silently in the pavilion, waiting for the spirit boat to set sail.

In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.

I saw a treasure boat gradually overflowing with astonishing spiritual energy on Juque Mountain. It was about twenty feet long, several feet wide, and as high as several buildings combined.

"time to go"

Jiang Qiong's eyes turned slightly, and he followed He Yan and Li Li towards the giant spiritual boat.

Use the token to board the spirit boat.

Don't wait to go to the private room.

In a blink of an eye, Jiang Qiong saw a group of Qin family monks standing on the deck.

There were four familiar figures among them.

They are Qin Sheng and Qin Chang, the managers of the hunting team.

There are also Qin Yurong and the shopkeeper of the study.

"I'm going, why are all the acquaintances of the Qin family here?"

Jiang Qiong's eyes narrowed, and she hurriedly used the crowd to cover her figure, and quietly went to Lingzhou's private room.

This works well.

Wait until the huge treasure boat slowly takes off.

Neither Qin Sheng nor Qin Chang noticed him.

The two left quickly, busy dealing with some things.

But the shopkeeper has a sharp eye.

He had nothing to do. While overlooking the scenery, he glanced around and spotted Jiang Qiong in the crowd.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, why are you here?"

The study manager said in surprise.

Attracting Qin Yurong's attention.

Her eyes flashed slightly, as if she was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Jiang Qiong was still alive.

"Shopkeeper, what a coincidence."

Jiang Qiong smiled stiffly and explained: "I was invited by a close friend to come to Qin County to take the spirit boat and accompany him to other oases. I didn't expect to meet the shopkeeper here."

"It seems that we are very destined." The shopkeeper smiled heartily.

"what"

Jiang Qiong smiled forcefully, took out the spirit stone, handed it to the study manager, and said:

"I was harassed by thieves two days ago, but I didn't have time to compensate for the breach of the spiritual contract. Now I have the chance to meet the shopkeeper again, and I can just settle the matter."

"Okay." After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately took the spiritual stone, took out the spiritual deed from the storage bag and handed it over, saying, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, keep the spiritual deed."

"Yes." Jiang Qiong nodded lightly, with a relaxed expression on his face. Without the constraints of the spiritual contract, he was now completely free.

Say goodbye to the shopkeeper.

Jiang Qiong didn't want to spend too much time in front of Qin Yurong and the shopkeeper, lest the clues would be discovered.

He was about to go to his private room to rest.

Just as he turned around to leave, before taking two steps, Qin Yurong's oriole-like words suddenly came to his ears.

"and many more."

Qin Yurong looked Jiang Qiong up and down with her beautiful eyes and called him out.

Jiang Qiong's heart suddenly tightened, but she still looked relaxed and asked: "Miss Yurong, what's the matter?"

Qin Yurong lightly opened her pink lips and asked slightly curiously: "Yulingfang City was attacked, how did you survive?"

"I was lucky. I followed the steward of the Yuling Sect to escape. On the way, I was teleported by the formation that enveloped Fangshi. I was sent to the gate of Fangshi. I tried my best to escape."

Jiang Qiong told lies without thinking.

When Qin Yurong heard this, she stared at Jiang Qiong for a while and remained silent.

After a long moment, she nodded gently and didn't ask any more questions. Jiang Qiong broke into a cold sweat, said goodbye quickly, and returned to the private room.

Staying in the private room, he looked at the scene in the sky through the window and sighed secretly.

If I had known that I would meet a direct descendant of the Qin family on the treasure boat, I should have changed the county and taken the treasure boat

Jiang Qiong shook his head and smiled bitterly. Unexpectedly, the Qin family was really affected by the fall of the Lu family, and asked some members of the clan to leave the Bixia Oasis early to preserve the fire.

"But what's interesting is that the direct descendants left the Bixia Oasis without covering their whereabouts. Aren't they afraid of being attacked and killed by the Chen family?"

"It was done on purpose."

"Or the 'empty city strategy'?"

Jiang Qiong looked thoughtful. After thinking for a while, she couldn't guess what the Qin family was thinking.

In the end, I simply didn’t want to.

Now that things have come to this point, we can only take one step at a time.

After gathering her thoughts, Jiang Qiong took out all the storage bags on her body and counted her gains in the recent period.

In Yulingfang City.

He killed four gangsters and the talisman shopkeeper, and obtained a total of five storage bags.

I don't know why.

Qin Yurong did not ask for the Lingfu shopkeeper's storage bag back at that time, and finally left it in Jiang Qiong's hands.

The number of spiritual stones in the five storage bags totals about three hundred pieces.

Among them are eleven magical artifacts, dozens of bottles of elixirs, several elixirs, four high-quality jade slips, and a bunch of miscellaneous materials. As for the spiritual talismans, there are only a dozen left.

The total value is about 1,300 spiritual stones, most of which were contributed by the spiritual talisman shopkeeper.

"These gangsters are really poor."

"The savings of the four of us together are not as much as those of the Lingfu shopkeeper alone."

Jiang Qiong muttered as she sorted out the spiritual objects, keeping some precious ones for her own use and preparing some for sale.

"Keep these two poison-clearing lotus plants. Keep three magic weapons that can eliminate hundreds of poisons at critical times. The rest are of poor quality, so sell them all. Keep a few bottles of elixirs."

"As for the spiritual talisman, only the recognition talisman is left. This kind of spiritual talisman can quickly restore one's own spiritual consciousness at critical moments, which is relatively rare."

It took several quarters of an hour.

Jiang Qiong organized all the items and took out four jade slips, which mainly recorded the painting techniques of more than ten spiritual talismans.

Think carefully for a while.

Jiang Qiong memorized all the drawing techniques of each talisman.

When the proficiency level appeared on the panel, he took back the jade slip and was not in a hurry to pile the experience points on it.

Instead, he silently practiced the "Shark and Whale Shattered Consciousness Technique".

With experience points currently scarce, Jiang Qiong was unwilling to squander it as usual and could only practice diligently.

Time passes quickly during practice.

More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the journey was smooth and there were no attacks. Perhaps the Chen family was considerate and ignored the spirit boat, which made Jiang Qiong relieved.

He had been practicing in his private room and did not go out to avoid bumping into the monks of the Qin family.

Fortunately, you practice diligently.

In the end, there was a great report.

After more than ten days of hard training, the proficiency of the Whale Shark Shattered Consciousness Technique has increased by two points!

“Amazingly efficient.”

Jiang Qiong smiled bitterly and shook his head, looking out the window. At this time, the giant treasure boat had slowly stopped at Yaoyun Oasis.

What comes into view are the towering mountains, monks in an endless stream, and vendors setting up stalls selling spiritual objects, making it a bit bustling and lively.

"It's time to go out."

Jiang Qiong walked out of the private room and found He Yan and Li Li, and the three of them got off the treasure boat together.

"Brother Qiong, where are you going next?"

He Yan walked on the road and asked, "Qingyun asked someone to introduce Li Li and me to a job in Yaoyun County, to look after the foundry building for the family. Do you want to come together?"

Errands in the Foundry Building

Jiang Qiong thought for a while, but was not interested.

He is in urgent need of experience points now, and the best errand is to go to a restaurant, help the spiritual chef kill monsters, or go to the slaughterhouse.

I have no idea of ​​going to the foundry building.

"I plan to stay in Pingyun County for the time being."

Jiang Qiong said thoughtfully.

The area where the treasure boat landed is in Pingyun County, which is relatively prosperous and not inferior to Yuling County in Bixia Oasis.

Stay here for a while.

See if you can find a suitable job. If the result is not good, go to other counties and cities.

"Okay, Brother Qiong, if anything happens to you, go to Yaoyun County to find me."

He Yan said with a smile.

Everyone is staying at Yaoyun Oasis, but the county is different. We can still gather in private when we have time, so we don't force it.

"Okay." Jiang Qiong smiled and sent a congratulatory message to Li Li.

It wasn't until the two people's backs disappeared that he withdrew his gaze, went down the mountain alone, and walked around the county town several times, looking for a suitable job.

Unfortunately, because Jiang Qiong is currently in the middle stage of Qi training, if he wants to gain a lot of experience points, he must keep killing first-level monsters.

However, restaurants or slaughterhouses that meet this requirement are basically controlled by major forces and are relatively difficult to enter.

If you reveal a higher level, it will take a long time to investigate your background and sign a strict spiritual contract to prevent you from being an undercover agent sent by hostile forces or having other plots.

If you are of a lower level, others will not look down upon you at all.

Therefore, Jiang Qiong kept hitting a wall in the remaining days. She talked to more than a dozen restaurant and slaughterhouse stewards, but failed to find a job.

Most conversations go like this:

"Manager Yin, may I ask if Chun Zuilou still has a spiritual chef?"

"Fellow Taoist, I'm really sorry, our restaurant is not recruiting spiritual chefs for the time being."

"Where's the Lingshan Apprentice?"

"Don't either."

"Manager Zhu, I'm Jiang Ge. I'm proficient in several kinds of rare dishes with skillful techniques. I came here to recommend myself. I want to be a chef in your restaurant. Please give me a job."

"Fellow Taoist, looking at my face, I dare to ask where the master of Lingshan cuisine comes from? But he is a local of Pingyun County? Where does he live?"

"This"

"Guanshi Shi, this is Qingxue Lingcha. It is of great benefit to cultivation. Please accept it."

"Haha, fellow Taoist, you are interested."

"May I ask the manager, I wonder if the Shijia Slaughterhouse still recruits monks to help?"

"Fellow Taoist, are you a native of Pingyun County?"

"I am from Bixia Oasis. I live in Yuling County. I once worked in Qin's shop."

"How is your realm, my friend?"

"At the early stage of Qi training, he is good at various techniques of killing monsters."

"Well, we have no shortage of manpower for the time being. Fellow Taoist, please come back with the spiritual tea."

"May I ask the manager, which restaurants and slaughterhouses in Pingyun County are still recruiting people?"

"Well, Anjia Restaurant, Luanque Restaurant, and Bainv Restaurant all seem to be recruiting Lingshan apprentices recently. Fellow Taoist, you can try them."

"Well, thank you, steward."

Jiang Qiong walked on the street, thinking about what he had experienced these days, and shook his head with a wry smile.

I visited dozens of restaurants or slaughterhouses, but were rejected by all of them.

Basically, all the major forces have no shortage of manpower.

Rogue cultivators are rarely hired and are not given a chance at all.

"Take it easy"

Jiang Qiong was patient and walked into Anjia's luxurious restaurant, hearing the noise of guests.

It was full of people, with guests sitting on all floors. There was a stage in the center with several dancers dancing on it, and musicians playing music next to it.

Jiang Qiong glanced around and found a waiter in the restaurant, explained his purpose, and was then taken to see the steward.

Go to the highest floor.

Before Jiang Qiong knocked on the door, a young woman and a middle-aged manager walked out. Both of them looked serious and were talking.

Judging from his tone, he seemed to be dealing with something urgent.
