Chapter 146 The Musician
At this point, Qu Qizhong raised his eyes to look at Zhang Deming and saw that he didn't respond, so he continued:
"So I sold one of them, at the price of ordinary second-order spirit nurturing beads, half sold and half donated to the ancestor, intending to seek asylum with this.
But the strange thing is that after the beads were given, the ancestor retreated for a few days.
I thought that after I left the customs, I would ask for a question.
But now more than a month has passed, the ancestor has not taken any action, and it seems that I do not exist in the family.
No one showed up to play the autumn wind anymore, and no one even came to the Lantian branch to hang out. "
Zhang Deming smiled, Qu Qingxian saw the name of the Blue Sky Branch, how dare he act rashly before confirming the background of the Blue Sky Alliance?
Zhang Deming nodded and said, "That is to say, there are two left?"
Zhang Deming didn't pursue other matters. When he handed it over to the other party, he said that he should handle it according to the discretion of the other party.
Qu Qizhong nodded and said, "Yes, there are still two remaining."
Zhang Deming continued to ask: "How many first-order spirit cultivation beads are left in the store?"
Qu Qizhong paused, thought about it, and said, "Twenty-three."
Zhang Deming said: "Then after you go back, you will send out a big message to start a small auction with one second-level high-quality nurturing spirit pearl and twenty first-level nurturing spirit pearls."
Hearing this, Qu Qizhong said hesitantly, "How far has the news about Guanshi Zhang gotten?"
Zhang Deming smiled and said, "Just do your best."
Qu Qizhong said: "In this case, it is impossible for the Lantian branch to keep a low profile."
Zhang Deming nodded, and said: "I can't keep a low profile any longer, so why not keep a high profile!
After the auction, depending on the situation, first control the speed of selling one Yuling Orb per day for a few days.
With such an operation, market control should be a joke. "
Qu Qizhong said: "Yes"
Zhang Deming interrupted the other party's words, saying: "I know what you want to say, doing this is breaking the control.
But the store may be known by many powerful forces, so the situation may not necessarily improve, right? "
Qu Qizhong nodded, and Zhang Deming replied: "Just do it, I will take care of these things, you don't need to worry about them.
Besides, in Tianling City, how many of the top powers in the report do not know yet? "
Hearing this, Qu Qizhong nodded.
Zhang Deming asked: "Then is there anything else?"
Qu Qizhong said: "Not anymore."
"If you don't have today, let's go here." Zhang Deming suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, you should write this down."
After saying that, with a wave of his hand, a ball of spells slowly condensed in front of Qu Qizhong.
Without waiting for Qu Qizhong to ask, Zhang Deming continued: "If you encounter an emergency, you can use this spell to contact me."
Hearing this, Qu Qizhong nodded, he had wanted a contact way a long time ago.
It's just that Zhang Deming didn't mention it before, and he couldn't see anyone, so he was always delayed.
"Okay, let's stop here today."
After saying that, Zhang Deming waved his hand and sent Qu Qizhong back, throwing the group of words along with him.
Immediately Zhang Deming waved his hand, attracting Qu Qingxian's stars.
But when he clicked on the light spot, he paused, pondered for a while, then threw it back, and he directly exited the spirit cultivation space.
Sitting in the secret room, a nurturing rune appeared between his eyebrows.
'Rune Summoning: Spiritual Summoning! '
Zhang Deming spread out his hand, and a unique ball of light from the spirit cultivation summoning technique slowly appeared in the palm of his hand.
Zhang Deming pondered for a while, and launched another technique again.
'Spell: Enhancement! '
In the dantian, the '+' rune ball of the strengthening technique was directly integrated into the rune ball of the spirit cultivation summoning technique.
And the light ball in his hand fluctuated for a while, and his aura strengthened a lot.
In the light sphere, there are now two virtual scenes.
One is an elegant figure in a small courtyard, quietly sipping tea.
The other is a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged in a secret room, with water dragons swimming between his brows, and three runic light spheres spinning above his head.
Zhang Deming pointed at the phantom of the middle-aged man in the secret room, and the ball of light began to surge.
Zhang Deming didn't stuff the ball of light into his body, and for the first time activated the summoning of the physical mirror image.
To condense the entity, there are only two options for the face, one is the self, and the other is the mirror image.
But well...
Zhang Deming's current body can change his real appearance at will.
Therefore, as the light sphere slowly condensed, it finally turned into the figure of a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's expression was dull, without any agility.
At this time, a mysterious message came from the spirit cultivation summoning technique. The popular translation is:
"Please choose: 1. Simulate mirror consciousness (simple);
2. Invoking the original consciousness of the mirror image copyer;
3. Ontological awareness input. "
Without hesitation, Zhang Deming chose three directly.
The field of vision changed for a while, and when Zhang Deming's consciousness was put into it, his body was completely solidified.
An identical figure appeared in the secret room.
But one is sitting with eyes closed and the other is standing.
Zhang Deming looked back at the main body, and then took a look at himself.
This mirror image body can be converted between the real body and the energy body. If it is a real body, it can't be seen at all without any means. My own body is a summoned object.
After a while, this summoned object is based on Qu Qingxian.
With the addition of strengthening techniques, his strength has surpassed that of ordinary Tai Chi Sansheng, and he is now a monk at the peak of Tai Chi.
After sensing for a while, I found that there is a little difference after the summoned object is materialized, and it cannot use other skills of the main body as it did when it was fused.
He can only use Qu Qingxian's ability, and with Zhang Deming's cultivation base, this body can only last for about two hours.
It seems that the consumption of condensing the entity is about double that of fusion. Of course, this is Zhang Deming's body, and he does not squat on the premise of hanging up on the spiritual vein.
After trying for a while, Zhang Deming turned into a ball of light again and merged into the body.
In an instant, his body strength soared, and he became a master of peak Tai Chi.
In this state, he can maintain at least four hours.
After sensing for a while, Zhang Deming canceled the technique after mastering everything, got up and left the practice room.
After leaving the cave, he quietly left the Dongcheng Lingmai area.
Tianling City is very large, and there are many small mountains in the city.
Most of the other three urban areas are relatively flat, like an urban area.
However, Dongcheng District is full of mountains. If the mountains are not generally high, and there are many houses at the foot and halfway up the mountain, it really doesn't look like an urban area.
The Qu family, as the peripheral family of Tianlingmen, the ancestor of the family, is even a senior Tai Chi monk.
In Tianling City, although they are not top-notch families, they still belong to the first-class level.
Except for the City Lord's Mansion and the Zhou family, which had monks of Liangyi, there were no families in Tianling City that could stabilize the Qu family on the surface.
And now the ancestor of the Qu family has made a breakthrough in cultivation, all the three life runes have been condensed, and he has reached the top of Taiji Sansheng, and he can even start preparing for the advancement of Liangyi.
His family status can go a step further.
But after Qu Qingxian made a breakthrough, he changed his normal routine and stayed at home.
Not only is there no big banquet, but there is no external expansion.
Except for some important figures in the family, the rest don't even know that their ancestors have made a big breakthrough in cultivation.
In this regard, some core members of the family expressed a little incomprehension, but they did not dare to question the ancestor rashly.
The entire Qu family is a bit out of date now, and there are only three of them during the Tai Chi period.
The remaining two are also capable of breaking through Tai Chi, and there is no hope for the future.
Therefore, it can be said that today's Qu family is Qu Qingxian's one-word hall.
Qu Qingxian stayed at home in a low-key manner, so that the Qu family did not expand because of the breakthrough of the ancestor, but became more low-key.
······
Wearing an old gray Taoist robe and an ordinary casual cultivator's attire, Zhang Deming came to the Qu family's home mountain range.
This is the only one-star high-grade spiritual vein of the Qu family, Zhang Deming looked at it from a distance.
The entire mountain range looks like an urban area at the foot of the mountain. From the mountainside, the buildings become scarce.
Until halfway up the mountain, behind a huge mountain gate, there are no ordinary buildings.
In order to continue to live upwards, apart from the disciples of the direct lineage, the collateral lines need to have a certain talent in order to have a place to stay.
Zhang Deming came to the mountain gate unimpeded all the way, but was stopped by two children of the Qu family who were guarding the gate.
Zhang Deming didn't care, he smiled and said: "Please inform your ancestors, I have something to visit."
The gatekeeper's disciple glanced at Zhang Deming and said, "Was my ancestor?"
Zhang Deming smiled, a mysterious rune flashed between his brows, without any movement of casting a spell, a dark green rattan emerged from Zhang Deming's palm.
The disciple of the Qu family who was guarding the gate swallowed back what he hadn't finished speaking.
The two looked at each other, and one of them said carefully, "Senior, what is your name?"
Zhang Deming smiled slightly, and said: "I'm Zhang Wu, you just need to tell your ancestor my name."
Judging from Zhang Deming's tone, he should be a good friend of the ancestor. Although the two had never met Zhang Deming, they were also relieved.
One of them turned around and left, the other stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said, "Senior, please."
The guard led Zhang Deming to a special reception room halfway up the mountain, and settled Zhang Deming down carefully.
Before he could leave, Zhang Deming's expression changed.
The spirit summoning and strengthening techniques were activated almost at the same time, and a ball of light directly merged into Zhang Deming's body.
The cultivation base has directly reached the peak of Tai Chi, but on the surface, nothing has changed.
"Now that we're here, why don't you come out and have a chat?" Zhang Deming took a sip of the spiritual tea for guests, and said calmly, as if talking to himself.
The guard at the side was stunned for a moment, and before he could ask a question, another voice sounded.
"Zhang Daoyou is really good at cultivating. I just arrived here, and I was discovered by you before I stepped through the door."
Following Zhang Deming's words, Qu Qingxian's voice sounded at the door.
Seeing Qu Qingxian, the guard immediately saluted and said, "See the ancestor!"
Qu Qingxian nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll catch up with my friend, you guys go back first."
"Yes, Patriarch!"
After finishing speaking, the guard and several waiters carefully exited the living room.
Qu Qingxian looked at Zhang Deming, and when he found that the other party's aura was much stronger than his own, he paused.
"Friend Daoist Zhang Wu, it's a good time for Qu to wait!" Qu Qingxian said politely.
Zhang Deming smiled slightly and said: "I didn't plan to leave you alone for more than a month, anyway, you are the person I secretly audit.
There is absolutely no need to do it in such an unfriendly way to get off Mawei or something.
After all, I only have one spot, which allows the headquarters to be directly promoted to the nomination of the two-star captain. "
Listening to Zhang Deming's straight-forward words, Qu Qingxian paused slightly, and said, "Oh, I heard that fellow Daoist means..."
Zhang Deming kept smiling, and said with a gentle expression: "Because of opening a new area, I encountered some problems, and I just finished solving them today, so I will come to see Fellow Daoist Qu immediately."
Qu Qingxian felt a little better because of Zhang Deming's explanation.
Whether it's true or not, at least Zhang Deming explained it well to him, and there was no perfunctory attitude.
At least in terms of face, he was taken care of.
"Why did Fellow Daoist Zhang come today?" Qu Qingxian sat on the main seat and asked.
Zhang Deming said: "Old Huang should tell you about the alliance."
Qu Qingxian nodded, and said: "I said a little, I probably have a certain understanding, but I don't really understand the specifics."
Zhang Deming said: "Actually, it's nothing, the alliance is equivalent to a loose organization, you just joined a secret platform.
Except for some special circumstances, the following tasks issued by the alliance are not compulsory, but completely voluntary. "
Qu Qingxian paused, originally full of questions, but Zhang Deming didn't know where to start asking.
"Mission?" After a long time, Qu Qingxian asked a question.
Zhang Deming nodded and said: "The alliance implements a point system, and missions are the main means of obtaining points.
As for the benefits of points, I think Fellow Daoist Qu should have already experienced it from the benefits for newcomers. "
Qu Qingxian paused slightly, and said: "The Lantian branch that suddenly popped up in the clan, is it really a fellow daoist behind it?"
Zhang Deming nodded and said, "That's right, you have to have your own pocketbook to open a new district, right?
The Lantian branch is the first cash bag in our new district. "
Qu Qingxian looked at Zhang Deming and said, "We?"
Zhang Deming smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Qu, are you still resisting the alliance?"
"It's not enough to resist, it's just Daoyou Zhang's so-called new area, Qu's eyes are completely smeared, why should we talk about it?" Qu Qingxian said lightly.
Zhang Deming glanced at Qu Qingxian, this is not only a master who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles, but also an old monster with tricks.
We just met, so we planned to climb up. Do you want to meet the people above and below?
Zhang Deming said with a smile: "There will be a chance. After I straighten everything out, I will organize a party."
Qu Qingxian's eyes flickered, and he smiled a little.
Zhang Deming paused, and continued: "This time I came to find Fellow Daoist Qu, besides getting acquainted, there is one more thing."
