Chapter 1197
"boom!"
This time, taking advantage of Shen Hao's inattention, Xu Jing knelt down, slammed his head on the ground, kowtowed, and shouted loudly for Master Shen to save his life.
Shen Hao retracted the hand that was stretched out in the air. He was stunned when he saw the other party kowtowing, he thought that the other party was just putting on airs, but he didn't expect that he could actually do this.
One must know that Xu Jing is a cultivator in the late Yuandan realm and the master of a sect. Even if his status in the cultivator world is not high, he can be regarded as a number one figure. It is estimated that he is so low-spirited to the extreme. Is it just my own life? After all, as long as Sanyuanzong is willing to merge into other sects, people in the upper and lower 20s can survive. Not to mention "help".
Perhaps, the "fate" Xu Jing mentioned refers to the signboard of Sanyuanzong?
"Sect Master Xu, there's no need to be like this. You came to me, and even risked your life to show me these spirit stones. I think, you've already figured out the way out, right? I don't like playing riddles with people, so you're straight to the point. I said, let me see if it is necessary to help you Sanyuanzong bear this risk."
"Thank you, Lord Shen!"
"Please get up, sit down and talk."
Only then did Xu Jing stand up with the support of Lin Ze beside him. His forehead was already torn, and there was some blood on it. Looking at the blue bricks on the ground, two pieces were actually cracked.
Then Xu Jing began to tell the whole story about his purpose of coming to find Shen Hao.
To put it bluntly, it is actually simple. Xu Jing was indeed as Shen Hao guessed, unwilling to ruin the future of Sanyuanzong because of the sudden appearance of a vein. Merge into other sects to become a down and out? Send someone under the fence? Besides, Xu Jing didn't want to let his master down, and the line of Sanyuanzong couldn't be broken in his hands.
But in the eyes of Xu Jing, a sober-minded person, the temptation to monopolize the top mineral veins is not so attractive. On the contrary, it is a deadly poison, which keeps him awake for days and nights, and even becomes a knot in his heart.
Since he didn't want to cut off the future of the sect, and he didn't want to take the risk of destroying the sect, he had to find another way and think of other ways.
If this was half a year ago, even if Xu Jing could be suffocated to death, he would not be able to think of a third way. But now there is an extra way out. That is Fenghong Villa, which has re-emphasized its strong presence now!
The former Fenghong Villa was like a jar, Zongmen only needed to put money into it on time, no one cared if you invested less, the sense of existence was very low, no Zongmen cared about the idea of a jar. But now there is a grinning vicious dog squatting next to the jar, who would dare to ignore it? How many people who cheated, raped and played tricks have been killed?
And Shen Hao, who was sitting at the top in front of Xu Jing, was the vicious dog that stirred up the situation in the sect. At this moment, it became his only hope to keep Sanyuanzong.
That's why Xu Jing found his close friend Lin Ze. Because Lin Ze said in the correspondence a few days ago that he had met Shen Hao at the book tasting conference in Wanjuan Shushan, and boasted that "the conversation was very happy", so Xu Jing, who is a dead horse and a living horse doctor He forced Lin Ze to bring him here.
Fortunately, Lin Ze didn't exaggerate too much, Mr. Shen really remembers that fate. Let Xu Jing tell Mr. Shen about his plan face to face.
After hearing Xu Jing finished speaking, Shen Hao's expression remained unchanged. Basically, what Xu Jing said was not too different from what he had guessed before. Xu Jing really had his eyes fixed on him, and put aside the sect's long history closed circle.
After thinking for a while, Shen Hao said: "Sect Master Xu, why do you think that Fenghong Villa will be willing to help your Sanyuanzong resist the pressure of the sect? You must know whoever the mine vein of your Sanyuanzong belongs to, Jing Jiuchao It can take 50% to 60% of the output. And there is no risk at all.”
"My lord, I, the Sanyuan Sect, am not qualified to occupy the top-level mineral veins, and I don't have extravagant hopes. As long as you are willing to help, I, the Sanyuan Sect, only need half of that mine vein, and the rest can be owned by Guochao!"
As long as half?
The corner of Shen Hao's mouth turned up. Self-knowledge is indeed a good thing, and he is also smart and courageous. This Xu Jing is definitely a character.
However, what Shen Hao saw was not just a few pieces of spirit stones. Even top-level ore veins were rare in terms of Jingjiu Dynasty's size, but they didn't have to be so rare. It depends on what you think.
What really made Shen Hao feel the most interesting was not the top-level mineral vein itself, but the behavior of Sanyuan Zong Xu Jing who wanted to break the inherent rules of the Zongmen circle. Although Sanyuanzong is just an inconspicuous low-level sect, Huo Miao's power is enormous. This is undoubtedly another rare opportunity for Fenghong Villa to break the internal cohesion of the sect.
With the example of Sanyuanzong, wouldn't there be another choice when the Zongmen circle needs to choose sides in the future?
However, compared with the benefits of helping Sanyuan Zong resist this pressure, the dangers that Fenghong Villa needs to face are also equal.
This matter is essentially different from the "investigation and punishment" separation of the family that was planned with the two super sects on the Wanjuanshu Mountain. It is equivalent to occupying the "reason" before, which is the consolidation of power that Fenghong Villa already has, but now helping Sanyuanzong is extending its hand into the inner circle of other sects. It is conceivable how fierce the reaction of the following sects will be.
It's like delicious fish, but the fishbone sticks in the mouth. It depends on each person's ability to eat fish without getting hurt by fishbone.
Therefore, with an opportunity in front of him, it is obviously impossible for Shen Hao to retreat in fear of difficulties. You have to try it to know whether it will work or not.
"Sect Master Xu, is there someone guarding the Guizong mountain gate at present? Can the matter of the Lingshi mine be covered up accordingly?" After Shen Hao made up his mind, he directly entered the topic. Although there are still many things to do in the future, the premise is whether Sanyuanzong can keep the secret of the Lingshi vein before things are fully prepared.
Xu Jing's face obviously brightened when he heard the words, he knew that Mr. Shen had let go of his mouth. He hurriedly stood up from the chair again, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I have already set up a magic circle on the other side of the deep pool. The disciples in the door can't get close. And there are two absolutely reliable people guarding at all times, so nothing can go wrong."
Shen Hao did not relax his vigilance, but warned: "Sect Master Xu, it is better not to take it lightly. Sanyuanzong must not be noticed by others at present, otherwise no one in your sect will be able to escape. Therefore, Sect Master Xu It is best to return to the Zongmen as soon as possible to sit in the town and take good care of the disciples under the sect. The human heart is the most unreliable thing in many things. I still need to make some preparations for the rest. I don’t know if it will be successful or not, but looking at this box of Lingshi For the sake of it, I will try my best.”
Shen Hao didn't say enough, and he didn't show what he really cared about. But he also told Xu Jing directly, and he followed up with this matter.
Xu Jing was naturally ecstatic, and Lin Ze was also grateful for his friend. At the same time, Cheng Linze will definitely benefit from this matter.
After that, Xu Jing and Lin Ze left excitedly, while Shen Hao put away the spirit stones on the table, and then went to the imperial city early the next morning, heading straight to Fenghong Villa.
