Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 15: The young man’s mission
The Jin family, which dominated the whole place, disappeared.
The earliest Jin family came to Baile Town and spent more than fifty years building up a family, but it was completely wiped out in less than half an hour.
What made Tang Jie sigh was that they did not die because they did evil, but because they offended the cultivator. They could not even be considered offending the cultivator, but only offended a servant of the cultivator.
Therefore, sin is not the source of their destruction, only those who offend those who should not be offended are.
"So in this world, not having strength is the original sin." Standing in front of the Jin Mansion, Tang Jie couldn't help but mutter to himself. Although he had already had this understanding, it had never been as deep into his bones as it was now.
Xi Canhen didn't understand what Tang Jie meant. His mood was all about his sister now. After asking the young man of the Jin family who had not yet had time to take advantage of his sister, the elder brother was obviously relieved. .
The demise of the Jin family inevitably attracted people from the government. However, after seeing that it was done by cultivators, especially those from the Xiyue Sect, with a stroke of a pen, there came a "Sutra" It was verified that the Jin family in Jubao Town colluded with horse thieves, plundered the trade routes, and massacred innocent people. It was confirmed that the Xiyue Shangxian, Mr. Tang Jie, took action. The trouble was eliminated, and Tang Jie's fingerprint was also printed at the end.
This is also a common method used by the government. Ignoring the apparent truth and looking at its essence will at least clarify when the Jin family was destroyed and by whom. It will also be easier for anyone who wants to investigate this case in the future to find clues.
The cultivators also know this, but they can't avoid being caught, but they can't even remember it.
Tang Jie was not very satisfied with this - it had nothing to do with the records, he felt that the government's work efficiency was too fast. From exterminating the family to recording it, it didn't take half a day in total.
Finally, the pavilion chief who managed the town realized what was going on. After taking notes, he asked Tang Jie: "The Jin family still has a lot of industries in the town. Look at these industry masters..."
Tang Jie said coldly: "Register everything and leave it to me."
This means he is going to take it all in.
"I understand, little one." The pavilion chief replied hurriedly.
Tang Jie added: "Remember to check all the accounts one by one."
When the pavilion chief heard this, he grimaced: "Everyone in the Jin family is dead. Without them, it would be difficult and time-consuming to sort out all the accounts."
"Then take your time and take your time. I'll wait for you." Tang Jie said leisurely.
The pavilion chief had no choice but to agree. He thought that this guy must be a calculator. He was afraid that others would defraud him of his money, so he had to keep a close accounting even when receiving other people's property. He would probably even come to see the usury money put by the Jin family in person. Take it back. Such people can also cultivate immortality. Even if they succeed in cultivation in the future, they will most likely become an iron **** immortal. When he thought of a big iron rooster flying in the sky, the pavilion director secretly laughed in his heart. He suddenly thought of the legend that immortals have the ability to predict minds. He was so slanderous. If the immortal found out about it, it would definitely be bad. He secretly thought of it. Say "Reckless" a few times, and don't dare to have extra thoughts anymore, just go and do your job.
After dealing with the affairs of the Jin family, Tang Jie called Xi Canhen's brother and sister. Under the guidance of her brother, the little girl saluted Tang Jie: "Xi Shangyue has met Mr. Tang. Thank you Mr. Tang for saving your life." ."
The voice is delicate and very nice.
"Zan Hen, Shang Yue, your brother and sister's names are quite interesting. Your parents should also be scholars." Tang Jie smiled when he heard the name.
The little girl blushed, lowered her head and stopped talking, but she had a quiet personality.
Tang Jie asked Xi Canhen: "Your sister has been rescued, what are you going to do in the future?"
Xi Canhen replied: "The young master saved my sister. Canhen will follow the young master to the death from now on and will never change!"
As he said that, he pulled his sister and knelt down together.
Tang Jie did not persuade him to get up. He just looked at the sky and said leisurely: "Follow me to the death and remain committed forever? Some things are always easier said than done."
Xi Canhen was stunned and said: "Canhen's heart can be judged by the sky, and I will never dare to deceive him at all!"
"Is that so..." Tang Jie lowered his head and thought for a moment, and finally said: "Then I have something I want to ask you to do. Can you do it well? Let me first remind you that the risk is not small, and it may be life-threatening. The danger!"
Xi Canhen said without hesitation: "Master, if you have anything to do, just ask me, Xi Canhen will never regret it, I just want... I just want..."
He looked at Xi Shangyue beside him, gritted his teeth and said, "I just hope that if I die, the young master can help me take care of my sister."
"Brother!" Xi Shangyue nervously grabbed her brother's hand.
Xi Canhen smiled at her sister and said: "Shangyue, the lives of you and my brother and sister were saved by the young master. Not to mention that the young master had a task for me to do, he just took my life directly. I have nothing to say. My father said before he was alive that in life, you must keep your faith and your promises, and then you will be a true hero and a good man. Although I, Xi Canhen, am not a man, I am still a man, and I will not be an ungrateful person. ”
As he said that, he pushed away his sister's hand and looked at Tang Jie firmly.
Tang Jie nodded in agreement: "Don't worry about this. If you really die unfortunately, I will definitely take good care of your sister for you, teach her the magic, and take care of her life-long safety."
Xi Canhen let out a long breath: "Master, please give me your orders!"
Tang Jie then said a few words to Xi Canhen.
After hearing Tang Jie’s instructions, the expression on Xi Canhen’s face was obviously dull: “Is it that simple?”
"Yes, after doing this, you can go directly to Canglong Mansion. As long as you can get there alive, you can officially become a member of the Wei family. By the way, there will also be your sister. I will ask my wife to give you Each brother and sister have a place in Xiyue Academy."
Xi Canhen looked solemn and said loudly: "Canhen will definitely live up to the high expectations and fulfill the young master's entrustment!"
Tang Jie waved, and he called Xiaohu who was napping not far away. Then Tang Jie stuffed a beast tag into Xi Canhen's hand: "I asked Xiaohu to protect you. Although this little guy is not smart, But it is not low in intelligence and can understand many words. It doesn't like to be locked up in the beast tag, so as long as it is not in front of people or when fighting, you should try to let it out for air. Every time before letting it out, you must Prepare a large basin of fresh meat for it. Oh, speaking of this..."
Tang Jie grabbed another handful of spiritual money and handed it to Xi Canhen: "These can be considered the expenses needed on the road."
Xi Canhen took them one by one, and she was filled with surprise when she saw the big tiger that could swallow two of her in one bite.
Is this tiger just following me like this?
Would you eat yourself if you saw something displeasing to you while walking?
Xiaohu was also looking curiously at Xi Canhen and the sign in his hand - he knew the meaning of the sign very well, and he would listen to whoever the sign fell into.
Tang Jie and Yiyi used to take turns controlling it like this, and it was used to it, but why did it change to such a young boy today? It doesn't look like much. It thought to itself and yawned lazily.
Tang Jie ordered: "Try not to let others discover the existence of the little tiger, which will make you much safer. In addition, the little tiger can fly, but you must walk there by yourself when you go to Canglong Mansion. Remember, although I can It protects you, but because it is not familiar with you, and with this guy's lazy temperament, it probably won't do anything for you. As for how far it can fight for you, it depends on you and it these days. If you have the chance to get along with it, try to have a good relationship with it. But the time is short, no matter how you get along, I believe it will not fight to the death for you. Personally, I don’t want to lose Xiaohu because of you. So if you encounter a being that it cannot deal with, you must be mentally prepared to be abandoned."
Xi Canhen said with a solemn expression: "Don't worry, young master, I understand."
After thinking about it, Tang Jie took out a few more bottles of medicine and two talismans and handed them to Xi Canhen. He then raised his eyebrows to Xi Canhen, and a little spiritual light was injected into Xi Canhen's mind. Xi Canhen immediately felt that he There seems to be an extra memory in my mind.
Tang Jie already said: "The medicine is for healing. In fact, it is not for you, but for Xiaohu. The talisman papers are some that I practiced drawing in my spare time. I am very good at drawing talismans. Damn, one hundred talisman papers ended up being only five, which was a huge loss. One of the two given to you is the Vitality Needle, and the other is the Purple Lightning Jumping Technique, which you can rarely use with your current physique. The other powers are It's too strong. If you use it, you will only drain yourself. In addition, I have taught you the twelve postures of the vertical sword. This is the only one you can learn now. Go to the town and buy a sword for self-defense. Finally, I will try my best to lighten your burden. Although I let you go to danger, I am not letting you die after all. This matter is half a task and half a test. With your intelligence, I believe you can Success, I'm waiting for your good news."
Xi Canhen took the things and bowed to Tang Jie: "Young Master, please rest assured, Canhen will definitely make it to Canglong Mansion alive!"
"Yes." Tang Jie then stood up with satisfaction: "In that case, you brothers and sisters, go ahead."
"Yes." The brother and sister said goodbye to Tang Jie together.
——————————
The massacre of the Jin family caused a commotion in the local area. Everyone knows that the Jin family offended people they shouldn't have offended, and the whole family was wiped out. However, although the storm was strong, it did not affect Tang Jie in the slightest.
A big man sent an envoy to massacre a small family, what's so rare about it? Don't say that the Jin family is an evil village. Even if they have done a thousand miles of good deeds, they will be slaughtered if they really want to.
This is class and privilege!
As long as Tang Jie is not so crazy that he kills one family after another, no one will bother him.
The only thing that surprised people was that Tang Jie, who had already completed the mining task, stayed here and began to take over the Jin family's property in a grand manner.
This was relatively rare in the past. Usually, if a cultivator destroyed a certain village or household, they usually only took gold and silver, and had no interest in land, property, shops and the like. Unexpectedly, Tang Jie was so greedy that he even wanted a land store.
Since he wants to take it, it’s hard for others to **** it from him, so they can only let him do what he wants.
Using the excuse of calculating accounts, Tang Jie stayed in the Yongsui Mountain area. Every day he either practiced behind closed doors or traveled around. He was born in a decent family, and he was always modest and easy to like. Therefore, in just a few days, most of the people on Shimen Peak became his friends, and they were very happy to get along with him.
Tang Jie himself took the opportunity to observe the Shimen Sect's Yumen Heavenly Lock Formation.
This Yumen Tiansuo Formation is also a famous formation. Even in Xu Muyang's true interpretation of the formation, there is only a record, but no specific method of setting up the formation. Tang Jie will definitely take the opportunity to steal it.
In fact, no matter what kind of knowledge it is, you need to travel around the world to gain knowledge. Even if you are a disciple from a famous sect, you must travel around the world to gain knowledge.
Time slipped away like this quietly, the turmoil caused by the Jin family incident gradually faded away, and the peace and calm of the past returned to the Yongsui Mountain area.
On this day in Jubao Town, people were still doing their own things as usual.
The people under the sun at noon are lazy and reluctant to move more. In the Jianbao Zhai in the east end of the town, a shop assistant guarded the shop listlessly, looking straight at the outside. , My mind has long been flying to nowhere.
A faceless man wearing black clothes and a bamboo hat appeared at the door of Jianbaozhai and said: "Man, can we collect treasures here?"
It was clear from his voice that he was still a teenager.
The waiter raised his head and glanced at the young man, and sneered: "Didn't you see the words on the plaque clearly? Jian Bao Zhai doesn't accept treasures, where can I collect them? Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, antiques, treasures of fairy family, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, As long as you have it, we can identify it and collect it here. But don’t take out those scraps of metal to fool people, so as not to waste time."
Although this was said in a loud tone, it was not really bragging, because Jianbaozhai was the property of Shimen Sect.
Most sects that cultivate immortals basically have their own treasure appraisal shops in their respective regions. The existence of these treasure appraisal shops is mainly to find treasures from the private sector that may have been missed. There are always fights between the immortal families. No matter how they fly to the sky or the earth when they are alive, they are omnipotent. Once they die, they will eventually return to the earth. They can return to heaven and earth, but the treasures they once owned will not.
Although most of these treasures may be taken away, there are always some treasures that cannot be recovered due to various reasons or accidents, especially those that have been smashed and have lost their value in various sects, at least not worth it. It takes a lot of effort to find it, but for some small sects, even the fragments of magic weapons are made of rare materials and are worth collecting and refining.
This is what treasure appraisal shops in various places do. They may not receive a good item for ten years, but as long as they receive one, it is worth all the efforts.
Of course, in addition to this, the treasure appraisal shop itself also deals in some businesses such as antiques and famous paintings. On the one hand, it can add some money, and on the other hand, the people in the shop will not be too idle. If you really want to keep only the magic weapons of the Immortal Family, the guys may not receive a single sale in ten years.
For this reason, shops like Jianbaozhai are also direct representatives of the strength of the sect. Most local sects can only open treasure appraisal shops on their own one-third of an acre of land. Only Xiyue Zhai of Xiyue Sect can bloom everywhere in Wenxin, and it can open wherever it wants, even in the other five countries. I can open several.
There is no Xiyue Zhai in Jubao Town, but it’s not because Xiyue Zhai cannot be held, but because people don’t like this place at all.
Despite this, as a shopkeeper for the Xian family, this shopkeeper is already an extremely arrogant person in the town.
So at this moment, looking at the young man in black, he was talking with his nostrils pointing upward.
If it had been anyone else, the store clerk would not have cared about what he said, but the young man in black was a little angered by the store clerk's words and shouted: "You are so rude, I can't even see it." You haven't seen my treasure, why do you call it junk? This is a real treasure, and I'm afraid you won't be able to keep it."
The store clerk sneered: "What a joke, my Jianbaozhai will still have treasures that I can't afford to keep?"
The young man curled his head and said: "That's hard to say. Who doesn't know what kind of people you are in this shop? You have the final say on the price of the treasure. If you really come across something valuable, you will always say it is worthless. Yes, it’s impossible to say that the price is lowered and the price is charged forcefully.”
The store clerk was furious when he heard this: "You are so rude, you made a false accusation out of thin air and why don't you get out."
When the young man saw this, he shouted: "I'm here to do business, why do you want me to get out? You can't make the decision here, so I asked you to come to the court!"
Business didn’t start and the two of them had a big quarrel.
This quarrel attracted countless onlookers, who were pointing and pointing around the shop. The young man seemed to have gained strength, and his screams became louder and louder. Even Ding Chaofeng from the shop was attracted and said dissatisfied: " What's so noisy?"
This Ding Chaofeng was specially invited by the Shimen Sect to be the master of the shop. Although he is a mortal, he has stayed in some shops of the sects and has seen a lot of magic weapons and magic weapons. He has refined a good With his sharp eyesight, no matter how weird the treasure is, it is difficult to hide it from his eyes. In recent years, he has received several treasures for the Shimen Sect, which has attracted the attention of the sect.
The shopkeeper saw that it was Ding Chaofeng who had arrived, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ding, why are you out here? This guy is rude and disturbed your repair."
The black-clothed boy was dissatisfied: "It's obviously your fault for talking nonsense. I came here to sell my treasures, but you said that what I got was scrap metal."
The store clerk felt aggrieved. I didn’t say you brought scraps of scrap metal. I just said don’t take out those scraps of scrap metal and waste everyone’s time.
Fortunately, Na Ding Chaofeng didn't care, he just smiled and said: "You always have to take it out to see if it is a treasure."
But the boy in black straightened his neck and replied: "I won't sell it. Remember, this is a big deal, and it was screwed up by your guys like this."
When everyone heard that the young man had been quarreling for a long time and actually made a move, they couldn't help but booed together. ~IndoMTL.com~ Even Ding Chaofeng frowned and said: "It's up to you whether to sell or not, but since you've come here, there's no reason to leave without showing off your treasure."
"That's right, if you want to leave, you have to show off your treasure before leaving." A group of bystanders cheered.
The young man couldn't help but flinch when he saw so many people forcing him to take out the treasure.
Ding Chaofeng said coldly: "Young man, I say it again, the baby is yours, you don't have to sell it. But since this has happened, you have to show the baby, otherwise you are deliberately teasing me. Baozhai."
This crime is serious. Based on Ding Chaofeng's words, the government officials can come and arrest him immediately.
The young man had no choice but to say: "In that case, I'll just show it to you, but I'll say it again, I won't sell it to you. I'm going to Canglong Mansion to sell this crystallized lugworm!"
"What?" Upon hearing this, Ding Chaofeng was shocked.
I saw that the young man had taken out a black stone from his body, and it turned out to be the crystallized lugworm.
