Immortality, Starting from the Side Sect

Three yin view, quiet room.

A ferocious-looking white bone magic weapon lay among a pile of white bones. Several piles of skulls arranged in zigzag shapes were particularly eye-catching. Under the dim light, the five skulls on the white bone magic weapon seemed to be alive. Open your jaw and start chewing the surrounding white bones.

Click, click.

There were bursts of creepy gnawing sounds in the quiet room, like a devil's cave. If others saw it, they would be frightened and faint.

While Chen Ci was refining his own magical weapon, he closed his eyes and recited the incantation. He waited until all the bones had been eaten by the bone-locking hammer, then he slowly stopped and let out a breath of filthy breath.

The quality of the gold and jade on the white-bone heart-locking hammer is even better, and it is obvious that his skills have improved.

However, there was not much joy on Chen Ci's face.

Bone Lock Heart Hammer: First Level of Restriction/51/100

It's a sin, but this White Bone Vigor Restriction has enough bones, and it enters the realm very quickly. I'm afraid it will take more than a month to advance to the next level.

Chen Ci sighed. Although his Five Yin Evil Qi Bag was not a serious method, it was still reasonable. He was practicing with animals in his yard, and he was not afraid of others looking at him.

But since he got this bone-locking hammer, he has to secretly practice in a quiet room late at night. The main reason is that the practice of this thing is really confusing, even though the bones were bought from Yizhuang, Changping County, and he works in a low-key manner. That's right.

Even though Chen Ci had taken some measures to force the big households in Changping County to donate food, there were still many frozen bones on the roadside. Lame Lao Dao collected the ownerless corpses this winter, filling up the yizhuang and even the Baihua Forest. There are also a large number of graves inside, so there is no need to worry about insufficient bones in the short term.

Hey, it's good to have peace of mind. Although I have gained, I am passive.

Chen Ci shook his head and put this matter to the back of his mind. Fortunately, it was already the end of February and the beginning of March, and it was already the spring planting season. If the refugees could open up some wasteland and add more households, the big households would be happy to invest again. Some, but he doesn't need to worry about anything anymore.

Using force to drive people away can only relieve them temporarily; using advantage to drive people away can only last for a long time.

Chen Ci stood up and put away the Bone Lock Heart Hammer. He had a lot of items on his body now. If it weren't for the ingenious design inside the Taoist uniform, it would be a bit inconvenient. He didn't know when he would be able to find the magic weapon of Xumi Mustard Seed.

Take some time to prepare the black jade rice seeds. With experience, it will be a lot more convenient this year. However, the shaded land is too small, only two and a half acres. If I can have one acre, I will be really happy.

It is okay to plant some black jade spiritual rice in the shade of Sanyin Temple, but it is not suitable for the milder spiritual rice such as yellow sprout rice. Although the price difference between the two is almost the same, it is still a bit troublesome for Chen Ci to replace it. Even if you don't know, you have to pay the store some damage fee.

There is always a difference between collecting and selling. Those profiteers will not let go of the opportunity to make money.

Master Chen, this is the abyssal sand of this month.

The head of the Huang family, Huang Yongxing, presented a bag of Five Elements Sacred Sand with both hands in a respectful manner.

Chen Ci took the sacred sand and thought about it for a moment. It seems that this frosting candy supply has lasted for almost a year and a half.

Time flies so fast?

Yuan Chensha, worth more than 200,000 taels of silver, still doesn't feel warm. The life he lived in his childhood must have been a bit shabby, and in a year and a half, his frosty candy business will be bought out. Naturally, the largest and most stable monthly income is gone.

A slight sense of urgency arose in Chen Ci's heart. The steady improvement of his own cultivation was indispensable to the monthly sinking of sand. If his alchemy practice could not be improved by then, his life would be difficult.

Tell me what's going on.

Chen Ci put Yuan Chensha aside and narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about something. He weighed the bag of Five Elements Sacred Sand and realized that it was two kilograms heavier than before. It was impossible to get this two thousand taels of silver. It will be a free tribute.

I dare to disturb Zhenren today, but this matter may really require Zhenren Chen to come forward.

Huang Yongxing said with a wry smile: Didn't the county take in a group of refugees who fled the disaster this year? Everyone squeezed out the family's food rations to help them survive the winter. In the spring, they will naturally work as tenant farmers to open up wasteland, prepare to plow some raw fields, or collect the family's crops. Servant, do some work.

Speak directly.

Chen Ci frowned slightly and gave a gentle drink.

Yes Yes.

Huang Yongxing hurriedly said: It's spring, and someone from Lin County came to beg for people. They said that these refugees are farmers on their fields. If we delay his master's property, we can't afford it. And the man said that his master He is also a real person from Heshan Sect.”

Chen Ci understood immediately upon hearing this.

Things like population and household registration are still very precious. Even some Heshan Sect disciples really treat ordinary people as cattle and horses. But if the cattle and horses run away, it will be very troublesome. Ordinary industries also need to be taken care of by human hands.

As for this matter, it mainly depends on whether Chen Ci is willing to stand up for the big family in Changping County. After all, that party is also a disciple of the Heshan Sect, and they are from the same sect as him.

“How many refugees has the county received?”

Chen Ci thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

Well, about 20,000 or so.

Why so many?

Chen Ci was also a little surprised. When it came to Changping County, the population suddenly dropped by one-fifth. He wanted to go and said, Can the county save enough food to support us?

without.

Huang Yongxing explained in a low voice: In order to let the real person know, Majia Village does not have a large population to take over Qingquan Village. They only wanted to plant core medicinal fields, but this time they took the opportunity to take over Qingquan Village with a population of more than 10,000. Woke up.

This matter was still a bridge built by the Huang family.

The Ma family needs the spiritual spring medicine field to grow elixirs to extend the life of their ancestors. The water in the spiritual spring is limited and cannot supply the needs of Lin Banshan and the Ma family ancestors. However, the medicinal materials needed by the Huang family only need to be soaked in seeds, and some marginal It’s not like the medicine field cannot be discussed.

We don't dare to make things difficult for the real person. The main reason is that he wants too many refugees, and we want to ask the real person to come forward and make peace.

Huang Yongxing gritted his teeth: If the real person is willing to come forward, the Huang family is willing to provide the real person with a pound of abyss sand every month.

A strange look flashed in Chen Ci's eyes. What kind of medicinal materials business does this old boy's family do in Qingquanzhai? Can it be so profitable?

However, this matter has something to do with him. At any rate, the big family in the county is working for him, and he will have many interactions with him in the future. This will make people lose heart. If anything happens, Chen Ci will have to resort to more tricks, which will also be troublesome.

As for the little character who is cheap and doesn't even know his name, what's the use?

Go back with my post. If anyone comes to ask for it, let him come to Sanyin Temple to find me in person.

Chen Ci gave the head of the Huang family a post on Sanyin Temple and sent him away. He was able to get an extra pound of Yuan Chensha every month, which was an unexpected blessing.

It seems that no matter where you are, people in drug-related industries are making a lot of money.

Chen Ci gave a light 'tsk' and then smiled bitterly. Seeing others making a lot of money doing business, why is it so difficult to get started on your own?

Apart from having too much conscience to be a profiteer, there is probably no other reason, alas.

Five days later.

Chen Ci was refining his five-yin evil spirit bag in the backyard and refining the black evil spirit with gold energy, when suddenly there was a light sound outside the door.

Master, there is a real man named Xiao coming outside. I want to see him.

Real person named Xiao?

Good guy, you really came.

You must know that in the circle of monks, failure to agree is rejection. Since we are fellow disciples, why make things ugly and lose face.

Chen Ci touched the bone-locking heart hammer on his waist, and then smiled dumbly. This kind of trivial matter was of the same sect, so it would not be a big deal.

Go and invite Fellow Daoist Xiao to come in. Don't lose etiquette.

Chen Ci ordered to go down and wait until the Qi movement was completed, then leisurely went to the front hall, ready to meet this fellow disciple, the kind who lives far away.

In the hall is a middle-aged Taoist with a somewhat prosperous figure. He looks to be in his forties or fifties. He has a bun with his head in a bun. He has an upright appearance, a jade-colored face, and a short beard under his chin. His skin is not bad at all.

Although he is wearing a Taoist robe, he does not look like a serious Taoist, but more like a wealthy man practicing at home.

Chen Ci originally thought that this man came to ask questions and had a bad attitude. However, when he saw Chen Ci, he unexpectedly took the lead and raised his hand to salute and smiled: Senior Brother Chen, I wrote a letter a few days ago. I am writing this letter to you, but my tone is a little bad and my voice is a little louder. I hope senior brother will not take it off, but the small courtesy made senior brother laugh.

After saying that, he also gave me a gift box. Although I don’t know what it is, it doesn’t look shabby from the outside.

Chen Ci: .

No, is Heshan so polite when he teaches his disciples?

Although they both belong to the Heshan Gaiden, your open-mouthed senior brother and your closed-mouthed senior brother call Chen Ci old. Chen Ci had a slight impression of this person's cultivation level, and he seemed to have more than thirty apertures. Although it was slightly worse than Chen Ci, it didn't matter. You must be so polite.

It actually made him a little bit incapacitated.

Senior Brother Xiao, please sit down. I don't have many guests on weekdays. I apologize for the small amount of coarse tea.

Chen Ci was a little unsure about the purpose of this person's visit, but he stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, and put down his initial guard. The two chatted for a few words, but they seemed to be in harmony, and they seemed to be from the same school.

That, Senior Brother Chen.

Xiao Yucheng smoothed his short beard, spoke in a slightly lower tone, and said politely: I am here this time, but I am a bit unkind. The population of my Xiangshan County has been greatly reduced in the past year. In the past, it was not a big deal. But now there is some trouble. There are many refugees coming to Changping County, Senior Brother. I hope Senior Brother can make it easier for me if I can let you take 5,000 people back.

After a pause, Xiao Yucheng added: I know that this may affect my senior brother's practice. I am willing to redeem it with money, can I?

Chen Ci: .

I feel like something is wrong, but that's the point. Chen Ci has a temper that accepts soft things but not hard words. It's really hard for him to refuse, and he can't change his face.

Alas, I lost myself among the shouts of senior brother.

Ahem, forget about the money. Brother Xiao, please take the three thousand people back.

Chen Ci thought for a while and decided on a number. It wouldn't be a big deal if the Huang family gave up some profits to make up for the others.

Three thousand people can go. I won't embarrass Senior Brother Chen.

Xiao Yucheng thought for a moment and agreed. He seemed to have never expected that Chen Ci could be so easy to talk to. While he was relieved, he felt a little closer to Chen Ci. Even people from the same sect would be close to each other. It was very strange. normal.

The two chatted for a while. Xiao Yucheng looked at the sky and apologized slightly: Brother Chen, there are a lot of things going on in Xiangshan County recently, so I won't bother you too much. In the future, senior brother will have time to go to a certain Fuxiang Temple and clean the bed. Welcoming you, fair wine and beautiful concubine, nothing to say.

Easy to say, easy to say.

Chen Ci laughed and sent him to the door. It might be useless to deliberately make friends with cheap friends, but there is no harm in becoming familiar with him. He might be a potential customer of his own elixir in the future.

It is said that the health-preserving elixirs of our own are not very promising in Heshan Sect. Even if the counties are a bit far away, it is not impossible to develop door-to-door delivery services.

Of course, that requires extra money.

Chen Ci was thinking about the feasibility of this matter. Xiao Yucheng was about to turn around, but there was some hesitation on his face. Finally, he whispered: Brother Chen, what I said may be a bit abrupt. Although it is good to be brave and diligent, it is not good to kill people. You still need to keep a low profile when practicing. This is not Heshan after all. Although the things in the Golden Book of Fuhu Altar are tempting, the Liang Kingdom still respects Longhu Mountain and has humane order.

Chen Ci: .

Practice killing and keep a low profile?

Chen Ci's expression was a little confused, but in Xiao Yucheng's eyes, it turned expressionless, and he immediately smiled: You just said it casually, senior brother Chen, don't take it to heart.

Senior Brother Xiao, where do you start with this murderous practice?

Chen Ci pondered for a moment, wondering if his Feng Criticism had been poisoned. It was not a joke to practice the killing method of Heshanzhiguang.

Taking some death row prisoners to refine some essence and blood, is this considered a thing in Heshan?

Ah, yes, yes, no.

Xiao Yucheng stroked his short beard and thought for a moment: But senior brother, the fact that you offered thousands of drops of essence and blood at one time has been spread among the Gaiden disciples. Senior brother, your fierce, ahem, reputation is like thunder, but Senior brother, you should pay more attention to this kind of thing, and you still have to deal with it from beginning to end. Although senior brother Hutou has a high level of cultivation, he is actually a little ungrateful. That's far from the truth.

The expressions on Chen Ci's face were changeable, and in the end, thousands of words turned into the word fuck.

Who leaked this?

Fuhutan?

Or do you have other intentions?

It shouldn't be that of being ungrateful. That cheap senior brother is still in the investment stage for me and has yet to see a return. He definitely won't do anything that is ungrateful. At least you can only burn the bridge by crossing the river.

Chen Ci took a deep breath and suppressed his thoughts.

Or do you want to tie yourself to death? But I want to live forever, and Senior Brother Hutou already knows that. There is no need to use this method even if the Five Ghost Possession Technique and the Five Yunyin Magic are at hand.

Subconsciously touching the bone-locking heart hammer, Chen Ci shook his head, threw away the distracting thoughts, and spat fiercely: Damn it, if I know who is ruining the reputation of the Sa family, I will definitely blow his head off, and so will the True Lord Yuanshen. I can’t save him, I said so!”
