Chapter 254 Concealment
Chapter 254 Concealment
This deal was concluded, and the rest of the people started bartering again.
After Nan Zhengya took her seat, she didn't hand over the object to Xu Ziqing immediately, but waited until someone brought out the treasure and attracted everyone's attention before making a move.
Xu Ziqing felt heavy in his hands, and he had already taken the wooden box: "Thank you, Brother Nan Zheng."
Then Nan Zhengya let out a soft snort.
Xu Ziqing smiled slightly, but did not speak.
He would never think that Nan Zhengya really thanked him for what happened last night. After all, it was just a trivial matter. Even if it saved Nan Zhengya a little trouble, the value could never be compared with a middle-grade magic treasure.But since Nan Zhengya said that, he won't get to the bottom of it, and just write it down as a favor. At worst, he will find a treasure of the same level in the future and give it to Nan Zhengya, that's all.
Afterwards, Nan Zhengya bought and changed some things, but Xu Ziqing was already very satisfied. He only smiled when he saw the other treasures, and didn't take them to heart.
About two hours later, the barter meeting was finally over, and the two stood up, watching the steward manipulate the formation and throw them out.
Xu Ziqing only felt his body lighten, but when Nan Zhengya came together, he usually took him with a whip, so that he would not be lost in nothingness.
Then, both fell to the ground.
Those Nascent Soul patriarchs left in a hurry after getting urgently needed things in order to prevent night long dreams. They wanted to find a place to refine them, so where would they stay for a while?
The Yuanying Patriarch who betrayed Nan Zhengya was the same as the Patriarch who searched for the furnace for his lover. They came out together and left together.
Xu Ziqing was the reason why Nan Zhengya didn't leave first at this time, so she wanted to stare at them.
Sure enough, Nan Zhengya sneered, and said, "I'll chase after you, and let's just leave now. If you are interested in your brother Bingtuozi, you might as well take the initiative and don't delay mother-in-law. It's really embarrassing for a man!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he just left Xu Ziqing behind and fled away!
Xu Ziqing heard him say that abruptly, and saw that he was already chasing after him, so he couldn't laugh or cry.
What kind of mother-in-law, what kind of man's face, where did he think about these?It's just that the more I admire my senior brother, the more I don't want to blaspheme lightly. I always cherish and love, and I would rather take it slowly.
But at this moment, Xu Ziqing seemed to feel something in his heart.
He only secretly guessed that Nan Zheng was so angry, could it be that he had suffered a loss before?But after changing his mind like this, he couldn't think of who could get Nan Zhengya's favor for a moment, and he became a little curious.
Forget it, the road to immortality is long, and there is no telling when they will meet again. If the time comes when the cultivation level is enough to escape Nan Zhengya's pursuit, they might as well go and have a joke.
Thinking like this, Xu Ziqing quickly turned into a dark alley with a little narrow mind.
Afterwards, the mask was taken off, and the original appearance was restored, and the kung fu was activated, flying back among the vegetation in the city.
Back at Prince Tiancheng's mansion, Xu Ziqing went into his own courtyard, Chonghua was lying on his stomach in the courtyard, but the jade talisman in his mouth was no longer there.He knew in his heart that Chonghua had indeed met his senior brother.
Then he thought about it for a while, and took another step towards Lanjian's residence.
It didn't take long to arrive, Xu Ziqing pushed the door open and entered, sure enough his senior brother was still as usual, sitting in the courtyard polishing his sword intent, his expression was cold, his eyes slightly closed.
When he entered the door, Yun Lie opened his eyes.
Seeing this, Xu Ziqing smiled and said, "Brother, I'm back."
Yun Lie nodded slightly: "Sit."
Of course Xu Ziqing went to sit down right away, and the joy in his heart, although he didn't express it clearly, was still very clear across from his senior brother.But he asked in his mouth: "Senior brother, did you go to the barter meeting in Jindan period?"
It turned out that what he asked Chonghua to bring back was not only news about himself, but also news about the barter club.
However, there is often nothing very surprising in the hands of monks in the golden core period, and even if they have, most of them don't need to exchange them.The barter meeting between them is often just a barter place between casual cultivators, and few disciples of the sect enter it. Core disciples with abundant resources such as Yun Lie should have nothing to learn.
As expected, Yun Lie also said, "No."
Xu Ziqing understood.
Afterwards, he told his senior brother what happened last night.He only said that after returning to the courtyard, he saw Nan Zhengya dodging, and because of his predestined relationship, he covered him up.Even Nan Zhengya was informed that she had a Nascent Soul cultivation base at this time.However, things related to past and present lives, Nan Zhengya's rebirth and recultivation, and senior brother's kindness to Nan Zhengya were not made clear.
It's not that he doesn't believe in his senior brother, but that Xu Ziqing's mind is also considered keen. He sees Nan Zhengya's words and deeds, and he doesn't want to have any contact with his senior brother. The so-called "kindness" must indeed exist, but if Nan Zhengya Ya thought it was very bad for them to covet favors in return.What's more, he had a tacit understanding with Nan Zhengya earlier, and it was precisely to hide it from his senior brother.
It has to be said here that Xu Ziqing really has selfish intentions.
Now his brother Jindan's initial cultivation base has been able to sweep away all Jindan people below Yuanying. If he enters more, he may not be able to deal with Yuanying.But since there are still deficiencies right now, it's better not to disobey Nan Zhengya's intentions, otherwise it will hurt the senior brother even the slightest, and it will be a heart-breaking thing for him.
However, Xu Ziqing had a delicate mind and had many considerations, and Yun Lie knew him very well, so he couldn't fail to see that he was hiding something, so he immediately said, "Ziqing."
Xu Ziqing raised his head, but seeing Yun Lie frowning slightly, he froze for a moment.
Brother, he, his expression has changed like this?This was really unexpected... But he quickly realized that with the ability of his senior brother, he had already seen the flaws in his words, and he was a little panicked without knowing it.
After more than ten years of practice, he has never concealed anything from his senior brother. Now that he has concealed it, he is already guilty. Unexpectedly, his senior brother found out immediately, which made brother Shi displeased and felt even more ashamed.
Before Yun Lie could say anything, he couldn't help but said frankly: "I'm not lying, I just planned something secret about Brother Nanzheng, so I can't tell my senior brother. I just dodged it because I didn't do it right. Please forgive me, brother, don’t be as knowledgeable as me.”
After he finished speaking, when he raised his eyes again, he found that Yun Lie's expression had returned to normal, and he was as calm as usual, so he was slightly relieved.Then he thought: If the same situation happens again, he can't act like this anymore, if he can't say it, he can just tell his brother that he can't say it, that kind of cover-up is really not a manly thing, but let him It's not worth it for the senior brother to be angry.
Having made up his mind, Xu Ziqing coughed lightly and took out the jade box from the storage ring.
I originally thought that I would give it to my senior brother after I got the Gengjin essence in Tianlan's secret treasury. At this time, it is better to use it to please my senior brother first, I just hope my senior brother will not be angry.
Xu Ziqing looked at Yun Lie with a look of anticipation in his eyes, and he gently placed the jade box in Yun Lie's hand.
Yun Lie glanced at him and opened the jade box.
In an instant, a transparent thing with brilliance appeared. Although it seemed inconspicuous, there was indeed an extremely mysterious feeling in it, which actually moved Yun Lie's mood slightly.
He paused for a moment, looked more carefully, and recognized it.
"Melted water fine crystal." Yun Lie said.
Xu Ziqing looked gentle: "It's exactly this thing, it was exchanged at the barter meeting, please accept it, brother."
Yun Lie pondered for a while: "How much did Nan Zhengya cost you in exchange for this thing?"
Xu Ziqing was stunned, and then said: "Brother Nan Zheng exchanged this item with a middle-grade magic treasure. When I enter the country in the future, I will return his favor... Since I brought this item to my senior brother , Senior Brother, don’t worry about it.”
Yun Lie didn't say much, he only put the melted water essence into the storage ring, and then said: "This thing is useful to me, I should thank you very much."
Xu Ziqing heaved a sigh of relief, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Senior Brother has helped me a lot, and now I can repay Senior Brother, I really cannot be thanked by Senior Brother. I have known Senior Brother for many years, and I agree that Senior Brother is very close. If Senior Brother also If you treat me like this, don't talk about the word 'thank you' again."
Sure enough, Yun Lie stopped saying thank you, and Xu Ziqing became more and more happy when he saw this.
He was already satisfied to be able to give something that the senior brother could use.
Flash forward two years.
There has never been such a big event in Shengyan City, and there has never been any excitement to watch, but perhaps it is because of the opening of Tianlan's secret treasure, the closer the time is, the more there is a sense of surging.
During this period of time, Wang Xuanze of Tiancheng was also doing a lot of preparations here, and rarely came to look for people, so the two brothers and sisters also kept practicing hard, and almost never went out of the palace.Even Xi Lin, who always liked to discuss the way of swordsmanship with Yun Lie, seemed to be concentrating his supernatural powers, but rarely came over.
At the same time, Xu Ziqing did not hear any more news from Nan Zhengya, as if he had never appeared.As for his pursuit of the two Yuanying Patriarchs, he didn't know if he was successful, and there was no trace of who would win and who would lose, and how life and death would be.
However, Xu Ziqing expected that since Nan Zhengya was able to get to this point and had insight into the conspiracy in advance, he must have already had a plan in mind, and it should not hurt him to wait for nothing.So even though he thought of it by chance, he threw it away.
Let's talk about Yun Lie, he broke through the golden elixir before, and he suppressed the limit in Ruyi Xianzhuang, and he realized the embryonic form of the small universe of Zifu when he was at this level of cultivation.It's just that even if he is talented, the accumulation cannot be accomplished overnight. It will take some time for him to gain benefits and stabilize them.
It's just that these five years have allowed him to settle down. Yun Lie's whole body has a sword spirit that soars to the sky, but now it is more restrained, like a sword hiding the front, making his breath more condensed and powerful.
Finally one day, Tiancheng Wang Xuanze summoned everyone again, there were more than ten Nascent Souls, and five or six Golden Core monks, who were Xuanze's confidantes.
There are also Xu Ziqing and Yun Lie, who are separated from his disciples and count as a cooperative relationship with him.
After five years of preparation, Xuanze has some confidence, but now he still looks solemn, because he regards this trip as extremely important.
All of them are practitioners, so they didn't need to say much before leaving, they only listened to Xuanze's explanation of where to go, and they all sacrificed their magic weapons and used their supernatural powers, and walked in one direction.
The entrance to Tianlan's secret treasure is on a huge deserted island in the Wudang Sea.
