Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 683: Blood Refining Country

In the early morning, Lu Tong and Dian Si'er were sitting at a breakfast stall on the street.

"Here you go, your red bumps and fried vegetarian rings."

Red pimples, salty soup made from blood clots, vegetables, vermicelli, etc.

Fried vegetarian donuts, deep-fried donuts.

Lu Tong smelled the fragrance and oil, and the haze in his heart dissipated a lot.

For half the night, Xianmei died and came to life again and again, her vitality gradually dissipated, and finally her whole person lost all vitality, like an empty body.

He pushed a bowl of red pimples over and said, "Is it done?"

"Not sure."

Dian Si'er handed over a fried ring.

Lu Tong took a bite, and a smell of oil and noodles came out of his mouth.

Dian Si'er took a spoonful of red pimples and said via voice transmission: "This method was taught to me by my master."

"What?"

"The more it hurts, the better it feels. It's not because of the pain, but it can only be felt after the pain. It turns out that it is so comfortable when it doesn't hurt. Xianmei will never forget the feeling of last night in this life. Only I can give you this feeling." Her."

Lu Tong chewed and suddenly thought of Wanxi.

Happiness and pain, love and hate, seem to be opposites, but in fact the boundaries are very blurred, and the entanglement between them is even more intricate.

He gradually thought of Yin and Yang.

The Purple Air Hall is connected to the Xuan Yang Hall and the Qi Yin Hall respectively. Sitting in the Purple Air Hall, one can sense one Yin and one Yang every moment.

Lu Tong recalled Dian Si'er's words and began to think in that direction.

Yin and Yang are opposite, conflicting, connected, and mutually reinforcing...

"Buzz"

There was a sudden twist between the eyebrows.

Lu Tong felt that the sky was bright "in front of his eyes", and it seemed as if a beam of white light pierced his eyes.

He suddenly shook his head, immediately restrained his thoughts, gathered his mana, breath, soul, etc., and looked around slightly panicked.

"What's wrong?"

Dian Si'er is a little confused.

No one around noticed anything unusual.

Lu Tong breathed a sigh of relief, but was still a little worried.

The mana was about to be leaked just now. The Nascent Soul Realm dispersed the mana, at least affecting a lot of spiritual energy in the surrounding area. Liangyao Zhengguo has Xuanyang Palace to monitor the aura at all times, and Xuelianguo must have similar means.

"I have no appetite, go back."

"Okay."

The two left the vendor.

Lu Tong walked slowly to the street and relaxed after two intersections.

"Hey."

He sighed.

Dian Si'er held his arms and said via voice: "Master, what's wrong?"

"I almost realized it just now, but unfortunately it was in the wrong place, so I had to interrupt."

"What did you realize?"

Lu Tong fell into silence, thinking about his previous thoughts over and over again until he walked outside the shop and said via voice: "It's very Mo Lake, maybe it has something to do with the inheritance left by the ancestor."

Return to the store.

Lu Tong entered the bedroom and tried to recall his previous feelings, but he couldn't find them, and the more he thought about them, the farther he got.

"Yin and Yang complement each other..."

……

After a night of chaos, the days returned to calm.

One month later.

In the shop, Lu Tong and Dian Si'er sat side by side behind the counter.

Lu Tong poured a cup of tea for Dian Si'er, pushed it over, and said: "Only one grass pill has increased, why are there so many fewer people."

Business was booming the past few days.

There are many repeat customers and new customers, and it even attracted a private school to order a batch of ink ingots.

After the two discussed, each ink ingot was increased by one grass pill.

Unexpectedly, the business plummeted in an instant. New customers disappeared and repeat customers also left. It has not been open for two consecutive days.

Dian Si'er didn't care about the business here. He took a sip of tea and said through a message: "The people of Xuelian Country are not rich, and the market is booming, so it is easy to find substitutes."

"Yeah."

Lu Tong looked out the door and said through a message: "We have to stay for a few more months. Will something happen to you over there?"

"Of course."

Lu Tong withdrew his gaze and looked sideways.

Dian Si'er put his head on Lu Tong's shoulder and said through a message: "The demons only recognize the strong, and there are no other rules. Someone must be causing trouble these days."

"No precautions left?"

"No need, anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed when he returns home."

Another half month has passed.

The street became noisy again, with many pedestrians and vendors rushing towards the Zheng Mansion.

That night.

Lu Tong and Dian Si'er escaped into the alley together. They were familiar with the way and got into the Zheng Mansion and hid in the yew tree.

Behind the tree, the formation is not activated.

In the small building not far away, there were bright lights. Xianmei stood alone by the fence on the third floor, looking at the moon in the sky.

Lu Tongtong: "Are you waiting for us?"

"Looks like it."

"You stay, I'll go take a look."

"Okay."

Lu Tong fell along the shade of the tree, approached, and transmitted a ray of magic power from a distance.

"Xianmei?"

Xianmei trembled, dissipating mana, and a layer of mist slowly rose.

After a few breaths, Lu Tong entered the small building.

Xianmei glanced at it and immediately began to look around, saying: "Don't worry, there are no outsiders. The two maids are also stunned."

"Didn't you tell Zheng Dachi?"

"No."

While she was speaking, Xianmei already showed an anxious look on her face, with some blush rising on her plain white face, and asked: "Where is she?"

"Who?"

"That person, the Palace Master!"

Xianmei's breathing was a little rapid.

Lu Tong walked to the side and sat down, poured a cup of tea by himself, and asked: "What did Wu Chudao tell you to do?"

Xianmei was about to speak when she suddenly looked happy, turned her head and looked outside, and fled towards the white mist.

After two breaths.

When Dian Si'er entered the palace, Xianmei had already fallen limply into Dian Si'er's arms, her face turned red, and she had a silly smile on her lips.

"Master, it looks like it's done."

"Yeah."

Lu Tong nodded slightly.

Life is full of suffering and little joy.

There is no suffering in the illusion, only happiness. You can enjoy yourself as you please, and the happiness is endless. Although it is illusory, in the eyes of some people, compared with happiness, true and false are not worth mentioning.

A big dream.

Xianmei opened her eyes, looked at Dian Si'er and Lu Tong, lost her mind for a while, then straightened her expression and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Lu Tong asked: "What does Wu Chudao want to do?"

Xianmei hesitated a little and turned to look at Dian Si'er.

Dian Si'er asked: "What did you do in the Blood Refining Kingdom?"

"Inquire about the news and send it back to Jiguo through Zheng Dachi."

After Xianmei finished speaking, she looked much more relaxed and continued: "Every one to two months, I come to the Zheng Mansion just to deliver the news."

Dian Si'er said: "What else?"

"No more."

Dian Si'er looked at Lu Tong and asked, "Didn't you be asked to collude with other officials to provoke internal strife in the Blood Refining Kingdom?"

Lu Tong frowned.

Xianmei looked very calm and shook his head: "Not at the moment. Jiguo and Xuelianguo are not at war. When they are bordering each other in the future, they may issue this order."

Lu Tong frowned deeper and said, "Si'er, how did you know?"

Dian Si'er sighed and said: "That's what Xianghuan is like. Wu Chudao has given an order. If it's a few years later, Liangyao Zhengguo will definitely be in chaos because of her."

Lu Tong's face darkened.

"Did she take action?"

"No, but a few candidates have been selected."

"Who?"

"Zhang Qiao, Liu Jixin, Xu Xuxing, Jue Mingfeng... Xianghuan has considered all those who have high positions and power and can bring trouble to the country."

Lu Tong felt stuffy and frightened at the same time.

Wu Chudao's strategy is very simple, but it is effective, at least it is very useful for him.

Dian Si'er said: "Master, let's do business first. Xianghuan's account can be settled slowly when we get back."

"Huh."

Lu Tong breathed out, looked at Xianmei, and said, "There is something you need to do."

"What?"

"The five major families of King Jing's lineage monopolize pills, cars, tea, wine, seedlings, and cloth. I can help Xu Ling win some business."

"What?"

Xianmei was very surprised.

Lu Tongtong: "I want to help Xu Ling deal with King Jing, but I can't do it in person. You will do it on our behalf."

"Why help Xu Ling?"

Lu Tong did not answer.

Like Wu Chudao, he also wanted to provoke internal strife in the Xue Lian Kingdom.

Xu Ling, a confidant of Baochuan, the leader of Blood Lian Kingdom. The official is the "chief judge" and is in charge of judging rewards and punishments in life and death. He is the eyes and ears of the king and the sharp blade that controls many lords.

Jing Wang Gefeng is the leader elected by many bloodline masters, and his power in the country is second only to Baochuan.

Wu Chudao's plan is too simple. At most, it will only damage the muscles and make it impossible to move the bones. If his method is successful, the vitality of Xue Lianguo will be greatly damaged.

Xianmei looked at Dian Si'er.

Dian Si'er said: "Can't do it?"

Xianmei shook her head and said: "The master of the palace overestimates me. I am just a servant of sex, how can I stir up such a big storm?"

Lu Tongtong: "You don't need to take action. We just need to find a few merchants and send them to Shuishi City to purchase. There will be people there to help them."

"Can you tell Zheng Dachi?"

"Can't."

Xianmei looked at Dian Si'er again and said: "Palace Master, I have no confidants, so I can't support the puppet. And if I take action without permission, I will definitely not be able to hide it from my adoptive father."

Dian Si'er's face darkened.

Xianmei immediately lowered her head, avoided her chin, and said, "What I said is true."

Lu Tong looked at the two of them and said slowly: "Just reveal the information and say there are several ways to make money in Shuishi City. Lead people there. Don't worry about the rest."

Xianmei waited for a moment, raised her head and said, "What about after helping Xu Ling?"

"You will know when the time comes."

Lu Tong and Dian Sier left Zheng Mansion together.

Return to the store.

The two were lying on the bed, and Dian Si'er sent a message: "That's not right."

"Yeah."

"At that time, Xianghuan struggled several times and shed several layers of skin before giving up completely. Xianmei was so obedient that I suspected she was acting."

"Yeah."

"If Xianmei told Wu Chudao..."

"He may not stop it. The chaos in Xuelian Country will also be good for Ji Country. Maybe Wu Chudao will go along with the situation."

"It's not safe after all."

"It's okay, as long as you take the first step, no one is willing to stop and no one can stop under the huge profits."

……

"I'm selling wine!"

"Wuyou Fairy Ship's fairy wine, snake gall fairy wine, a bowl of herbs and elixirs, the first bowl is free."

"Come and try it!"

A few large green vats were placed outside a wine shop, and the waiters stood nearby and shouted.

One person came over and said, "It's so cheap, isn't it poisonous?"

The boy directly scooped out a ladle, drank two sips, and said: "Such a good fairy wine, it is worth poisoning to death!"

"I'll try a bowl."

"I'll try it too."

"A bowl of it for free."

Soon, the wine shop was filled with customers.

The boys poured wine one by one.

"Hiss!"

One of them took half a sip, smacked it twice, and said, "Good wine! Young man, such a good wine, you can only sell a straw pill?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

The boy smiled and said: "God knows, maybe there is too much wine to sell, and you are begging us to drink it!"

Another place in the city.

Lu Tong and Dian Si'er stood on the roadside.

A young monk stood under the plaque covered with red cloth and said: "The shop is newly opened. It sells the blood pills of Liangyao Zhengguo at a special price. Ten grass pills can buy one blood pill. Each person is limited to one. pieces."

"I want one."

"Open the door quickly."

Lu Tong said with a smile on his face: "It's a business that makes money in vain, the price we sold is only four grass pills."

Grass elixirs are useless, but blood elixirs are a good elixir that is not in demand everywhere.

Previously, Liangyao Zhengguo did not need Cao Dan, and there was very little trade between the two countries. Only recently did they suddenly let go of the trade.

Dian Si'er said: "This is to use Liangyao Zhengguo's money to support Xuelianguo."

"Yeah."

Dian Si'er couldn't figure out the pass and asked: "Why?"

"Weaken King Jing and support Xu Ling. The stronger Xu Ling becomes, the stronger Baochuan becomes. Will King Jing swallow his anger?"

"What if I can't bear it?"

"Then help Xu Ling go further until King Jing can't bear it anymore. Let's go, we can go back."

"Wait a minute, I'll see Xianmei again."

……

Blood Refining Country, Chishui Mountain.

A big red river rushes through the mountains. At the end of the river is a dark red mountain over a thousand feet high. The mountain is like a giant tower, and everything from the top to the foot of the mountain is carved into the shape of a tower.

The top of the tower.

A young man with a rich appearance and sharp eyes bowed his hands in salute and said: "Xu Ling, pay homage to the king!"

"I heard that your subordinates have grown in strength and taken over a lot of Prince Jing's business?"

"Yes."

"Did you know that the elixirs from Liangyao Zhengguo, the wine from Jieshui Lake, and the seeds from unknown sources are far lower than the market price?"

"I know. There are shadows of Liangyao Zhengguo in it, as well as Shuguo and Lianzhoushan."

"How are you prepared?"

"I will swallow all the benefits and take as much as I am given. I have already prepared warehouses in various places, hoarding food, etc., which is enough to deal with any problems."

"Very good, don't forget to give half of the benefits of swallowing to the Gresham Chamber of Commerce."

"Yes."

……

More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Purple Air Palace.

Lu Tong sat cross-legged on the couch, the beam above his head flashing with light, half of it connected to the Xuanyang Palace, turning into a ball of yang energy. Half of it is connected to the Yin Prison Palace, turning into a ball of Yin Qi.

As the mana is transported out, Yang Qi and Yin Qi arise and disappear each other.

"The Lord of the Kingdom, the Lord of the Qin Sect wants to see you."

"Please come in."

He gathered his magic power.

Qin Zong entered the palace, cupped his hands and said: "Meet the Lord."

"Sit."

Qin Zong sat down and said: "Master, the Liangyao Chamber of Commerce has almost exhausted its resources and must stop trading with the Blood Refining Kingdom."

"So fast?"

"The Blood Refining Country is a big country, and we cannot bear the overwhelming trend. In fact, it was already very difficult three months ago, and we had to postpone the new magic weapon entrusted to the Bu family for refining."

Lu Tongtong: "How is the domestic situation in Xuelian?"

"Xu Ling's lineage occupies 40% of the elixirs, 10% of the magic weapons, 90% of the medicinal wine, 60% of the seedlings, and 20% of the cloth. I arranged for someone to do the math. If we stop, Xu Ling can keep about half. ”

"King Jing didn't fight back?"

"No, I guess, they should know that this trend will not last long."

"Old fox..."

Lu Tong shook his head and said: "Ask Shuguo for help and hold on for a while longer."

Qin Zong sighed in his heart and said: "There is one more thing. I got countless grass pills during the transaction with Xuelian Kingdom. These pills are very useless. What should I do with them?"

"Can't you spend it?"

"It can be spent, but the Xuelian Kingdom is very closed to outsiders. You can't buy what you want, and you can't use what you can buy. Moreover, the number of grass pills is huge, and the wanton acquisition cannot be hidden from the Xuelian Kingdom. They will definitely do it. Raise the price. ~IndoMTL.com~ Lu Tong frowned and thought for a moment, a faint light flashed through his eyes.

"Send it to Shenxu and give it to Jushu."

Qin Zong hesitated.

Lu Tongtong: "What's wrong?"

"This is a huge amount of money. The Chamber of Commerce is already very weak and has no extra financial resources. What can Jisui give back to the Chamber of Commerce?"

Lu Tong lowered his eyelids, remained silent for a while, and said, "Let him write an IOU and pay it back later."

"Yes."

At night.

Ji Shu entered the Ziqi Palace and said, "Master of the Kingdom, the Master of the Qin Zong Palace sent countless herbal pills and asked me to write an IOU saying it was an order from the Lord of the Kingdom."

"Yeah."

Lu Tong has been waiting for the drama, and said: "The Blood Refining Kingdom can be moved, but now we need your intervention."

"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."

"The Xianhe we support is from King Jeong's lineage?"

"Yes, after Xianhe was named 'King Jin', his status was second only to King Jing, surpassing the previous old masters."

King Jing, King Jin, and many pulse masters are all present on the mountains of Blood Lian Country.

Baochuan firmly holds the position of the leader of the country, relying first on his strength, second on the Ge family, and third on Xu Ling who single-handedly supported him.

Lu Tong thought about it and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, if Xu Ling catches our 'handle' of colluding with King Jin, will he attack King Jin?"

Ju Mao narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said: "Nine times out of ten. King Jin's growth has aroused Baochuan's fear. Xu Ling will take action sooner or later. There is no reason not to use the knife in his hand."

"Find some 'handles' and give them to Xu Ling to help him take another step forward."

"Yes."

"Be careful, don't let King Jin realize it's us."

"No, Xu Ling is determined to do something. We only need to say a few treacherous and flattering words. King Jin will sound fine, but Xu Ling can frame him if he hears it."

"Go ahead."

"Yes."
