Chapter 225 Banquet
Gao Xian came back from Jade Mirror Palace and took Zhou Ye and Daniu to the Zhang family mansion in Anshanfang.
Don't give up the house given to you by others.
For Zhang Dongling, giving away a house can solve the problem of death, which is really a good deal.
There were people waiting in the Zhang family residence. Gao Xian asked Zhou Ye to come forward, and the other party obediently made a simple handover of various items.
After finishing, several people left in a hurry.
Gao Xian walked around the house. It was not as spacious as Qiniang's house. Considering that Qingyun City accommodates three million cultivators, such a large house seems very luxurious.
There is no alchemy room in the Zhang family, only a side room for making talismans, which is quite spacious. Zhang Dongling should be a talisman maker.
The other party left in a hurry. Although the room was tidied up, he still left behind some talisman-making pens, talisman paper and other items.
These are fine products used by second-level foundation-building monks, and the total of 0,708 are worth three to five hundred spirit stones.
Old man Zhou Ye got a big deal, and his old face smiled happily.
Gao Xian called for Da Niu and pointed to the Talisman Making Room to explain how to modify it.
Today, he has a lot of spiritual stones and no longer needs to use charcoal fire to refine elixirs.
Renovating the alchemy room is very simple. You only need to modify the windows to facilitate ventilation and heat conduction, and to introduce the aroma of the elixir into the flue. The next door can be converted into a medicinal storage room.
Zhou Ye stayed in Qingyun City for three years, secretly made and sold talismans, and met many people.
Zhou Ye and Daniu can handle the matter of finding someone to reform.
Gao Xian walked around the mansion and inspected the inside and outside in detail through the flower appreciating mirror, mainly to prevent Zhang Dongling from playing any dirty tricks.
For example, hiding some poison, or leaving some curse or nightmare method to harm others.
At the level of a foundation-building monk, you have a lot of time and energy. If you are interested, you can practice some strange and weird spells.
Gao Xian didn't think Zhang Dongling was that stupid, but he had to guard against him.
Checked it again and found nothing unusual.
The house is a bit big, but chores such as cleaning and serving tea and water require some manpower.
Without Gao Xian's words, Zhou Ye volunteered to do all kinds of work in an orderly manner.
Gao Xian actually didn't want to stay with Zhou Ye. After all, he was Yu Ling's father, and he had taken good care of him in the past. Even as an elder, he couldn't do whatever he wanted.
In addition, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the old man because of Yu Ling's incident.
This matter itself is correct, but the old man's sneakiness changed the matter.
However, he really has no one he can trust.
Da Niu is too honest and honest, and it is no problem to specialize in alchemy. If you let him go out to deal with people, you will definitely suffer a loss and be deceived.
Moreover, Daniel needs to concentrate on refining elixirs and practicing cultivation. His qualifications are mediocre, and if he distracts himself from doing other things, his future will definitely be affected.
After much deliberation, Zhou Ye is the most suitable person to be a housekeeper. First of all, the old man knows the basics and is trustworthy.
Secondly, the old man cannot build a foundation and can concentrate on handling various chores. The old man is smooth and sophisticated, quite familiar with Qingyun City, and can handle various things with ease.
Gao Xian asked Zhou Ye's opinion, and Zhou Ye was of course absolutely unanimous.
The daughter worshiped at the high gate, but he could not borrow any help. Following Gao Xian has great benefits.
Gao Xian hugged Yun Qingxuan's thigh again. Even if the Qingyun Law Society failed to win the championship, joining the Qingyun Sect was a sure thing.
Even if things don't work out, Gao Xian is still a great monk in foundation building! If you follow him, you will be ten times stronger than yourself.
"Uncle Zhou, I can't use your help in vain. I will give you one hundred spiritual stones a month..."
“Hey, there's no need for that. What's the relationship between the two of us? There's no one around you and I'm going to help you. How can I ask for your spiritual stone…”
The old man quickly gave in and his words were quite sincere.
Gao Xian said: "It's okay to leave such a big house without anyone to take care of it. I'll have to worry about Uncle Zhou in the future."
The old man smiled and took the storage bag handed over by Gao Xian. He opened it and saw that there was a space of ten square meters and three thousand low-grade spiritual stones were placed in it.
The old man was even more satisfied. Gao Xian had always been generous, and he became even more generous after becoming a foundation-building monk.
He regretted it a little. In fact, it was a good choice for Yuling to follow Gao Xian, but it was too late to say anything now...
Zhou Ye is greedy for money, but quite capable. With his help, the alchemy room was renovated in two days.
Maids, old women, and servants are all here.
Qingyun City does not allow slave trading, these maids and old ladies are all hired.
At this point, we can actually see the background of the cultivator. A cultivator like Zhang Dongling, who comes from a family of foundation-building families, has trained a large number of people who are easy to use and loyal and reliable.
It's hard to say for these hired people.
Gao Xian did not worry about these chores. After the alchemy room was completed, he immediately devoted himself to the cause of alchemy.
For him, the spiritual stones earned by refining alchemy are secondary. The most important thing is the humane aura gained through it.
The refined elixir can be transported back to Lianyun City through Yunshui Tower, which only costs two hundred spirit stones for shipping.
There is Qiniang who runs the medicine hall in Lianyung City, and the elixirs can be smoothly radiated to the surrounding cities in Lianyung City through various channels.
Now it can steadily provide him with more than 80,000 humane auras a month. From November to now, it has accumulated 800,000 humane auras.
Gao Xian thinks that the number of humane auras is about 40,000 to 50,000 more, presumably because of those illustrated novels.
This also made him interested in picture book novels again, and he took the time to draw two more books. Prepare to find an opportunity to promote it in Qingyun City.
Gao Xian was refining alchemy that day. Zhou Ye hurried in and said, "There are several foundation-building monks coming to visit outside. They claim to be neighbors. The leading couple are named Wei Cheng and Wei Shuangshuang..."
Gao Xian nodded. Normally, he was a new mover, so he should go visit the neighbors and get acquainted with them.
It's just that he has too many things to do, and he has robbed Zhang Dongling's house. He will attend the Qingyun Dharma Assembly in two months, and he has no time to socialize with the neighbors.
Since the neighbors have come to visit, they cannot but entertain them. When Gao Xian arrived at the atrium, he saw four foundation-building monks standing under a beautiful pergola. The couple in the front were particularly eye-catching.
The man has a rough appearance, a tall figure with broad shoulders and a broad back. When he lowers his hands, his fingertips are already close to his knees.
He was dressed in blue robes and wore a four-foot long sword at his waist.
Anyone who looks at him will feel that this person is naturally brave and courageous.
The young woman next to the man has thin eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, and her skin is as white as snow. She has a delicate figure and the unique plumpness of a young woman. She is wearing a purple dark gold hibiscus patterned skirt, which makes her look extremely beautiful.
She is actually not short, but she looks very petite when standing next to a tall man.
It feels like Bingbing and Yao Ming are standing together, except that this big man has a fierce face and a tiger-like momentum, which is very different from Yao Ming's style.
According to what Zhou Ye said, these two people should be Wei Cheng and Wei Shuangshuang.
The other two foundation-building monks also have their own magnanimity, and it can be seen that they are both very advanced.
Gao Xian went over to clasp his fists and say hello: "My dear Gao Xian, I just moved here. I was supposed to visit the neighbors first, but I was delayed due to some things. Don't blame me..."
The beautiful young woman smiled and returned the favor with her hands in hand: "Everyone said that a new neighbor has arrived, so let's come over and have a look. Fellow Taoist Taoist is so handsome, I feel happy when I see it..."
These words were quite bold. If her husband hadn't been by her side, Gao Xian would have felt that he was teasing her.
Looking at Wei Cheng's calm expression, he seemed not to care about it.
Gao Xian quickly gave in and said humbly: "Fellow Taoist, I have received the award. I feel ashamed to deserve it."
Wei Shuangshuang smiled sweetly: "I'm such a hot-tempered person. I say whatever comes to my mind. Fellow Taoist, don't be offended."
She has a bright smile on her face and eyes, and her smile is generous and sincere, which is very contagious. It also made her more radiant and bright.
Gao Xian thinks that Wei Shuangshuang is really beautiful, and she has a kind and straightforward nature, which makes her very charming.
Fortunately, Wei grew tall and fierce, and his momentum could completely suppress Wei Shuangshuang.
For someone with a weak aura, this woman would inevitably steal the limelight, and may even be misunderstood by outsiders as Wei Shuangshuang's licentiousness.
Wei Shuangshuang also admired Gao Xian quite a lot. The man in green clothes and sword was really clear and clear, as noble as the moon and as chic as the wind. It makes people feel close to you.
This man is much better than the gloomy Zhang Dongling.
She took the initiative to introduce to Gao Xian: "My name is Wei Shuangshuang, and this is my husband Wei Cheng. Idiots generally cannot speak. These two Taoist friends are Tong Yan and Yuan Lin."
Tong Yan has a thin body, average facial features, and looks featureless.
Yuan Lin is also a tall man who speaks quite enthusiastically, but he is very different from Wei Cheng.
Gao Xian greeted each of them one by one and invited them into the room to drink tea.
The maid brought the tea, and Gao Xian said politely: "It's my first time here, everything is very simple, which makes all the fellow Taoists laugh..."
“Fellow Taoist is too humble.”
Wei Shuangshuang was very interested in Gao Xian. She looked straight at Gao Xian with her beautiful and charming almond-shaped eyes, and asked curiously: "I heard that Zhang Dongling gave the house to fellow Taoist Taoist, I wonder if this is true?"
This news has spread, but no one knows the details, and of course they are very curious about it.
"indeed so."
Gao Xian did not explain in detail. He believed that Wei Shuangshuang and others could understand what he meant.
As expected, Wei Shuangshuang and others were amazed. After all, this house is worth one hundred thousand spiritual stones. For a foundation-building monk, this is also a lot of money!
Just give it to a wise man who is neither a relative nor an acquaintance. Something big will happen here.
Wei Shuangshuang became even more curious, but she also understood that Gao Xian didn't take the initiative to say this because he didn't want to say it. It would be rude to ask further.
She asked again: "I don't know where your friend is from. Are you here to participate in the Qingyun Dharma Assembly?"
Gao Xiandu patiently explained.
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard that Gao Xian was from the Lianyun Sect. How could such a small sect have a talent like Gao Xian? !
The key is that from such a small sect, how could he have the ability to force Zhang Dongling to humbly send him to the mansion?
Everyone chatted for a long time, and when it was noon, everyone said goodbye and left.
Gao Xian sent several people outside the gate before waving goodbye, when a carriage stopped in front of the gate.
Yun Qiushui, dressed in white like clouds, floated down from the chariot. He laughed at Gao Xian: "Fellow Taoist, you are finally here!"
Gao Xian was also very happy. Yun Qiushui might be his only friend in this world.
Just this kind of congeniality is very rare.
“Fellow Taoist is here just in time, let's have a drink together at noon…”
Wei Cheng, Wei Shuangshuang and others did not go far, they all saw Yun Qiushui.
Wei Shuangshuang's bright eyes lit up: “What a handsome man!”
Wei Cheng said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense. This man is Yun Qiushui, the son of the cadre leader Yun Changfeng, the younger brother of Yun Qingxuan, and the direct descendant of the Qingyun Sect..."
The other Foundation Establishment cultivators all had serious expressions on their faces. Although they were Foundation Establishment monks, they were far different from Yun Qiushui.
Yuan Lin suddenly realized: "With such a friend, it's no wonder that Zhang Dongling would bow his head and admit defeat. How dare he not admit defeat!"
Wei Shuangshuang sighed: "Fellow Taoist Gao must be very capable to be able to reach such a figure..."
Yun Qiushui didn't pay attention to the several foundation-building monks in the distance. He laughed and held hands and said, "Shui Yuying is treating us at noon today. Let's go drink her wine!"
He paused for a moment and then said: "Fellow Taoist, are you afraid of facing Master Jindan?"
Gao Xian laughed: "To say that I am not afraid is too arrogant, and to say that I am afraid is too inferior. With fellow Taoists standing in the way, why bother thinking so much..."
“Hahaha…” Yun Qiushui laughed.
(It's the end of the month, brothers, please start charging for your monthly tickets~)
