Volume 6: The Dance of Demons, 1314 Temporary Residence
"The environment here is quite good." Liu Ming looked around, nodded and said.
The courtyard in front of me looks quite open, but it is a bit dilapidated, and it seems that it has not been repaired for a long time.
"Senior Mingjian, this was originally the ancestral house of the Yan family, a big family in the city. It is said that it contained a source of magic of high quality. It is a pity that the Yan family fell into decline, and later people rebuilt it into We have rented out a few separate courtyards for some high-ranking demons who like to live in seclusion." The brown-robed youth spoke with eloquence.
Hearing this, Liu Ming nodded slowly.
During the conversation between the two, a middle-aged man in fine clothes walked out from Cuizhujuli.
"Shopkeeper Yan, I've brought you business. This senior wants to rent a temporary residence from you." The brown-robed youth immediately raised his voice when he saw the man in the fine clothes.
Liu Ming glanced at the man in the fine clothes, he was only in the middle stage of Huajing cultivation, no wonder the brown-robed youth said that his family was in decline.
"It's a coincidence that senior came here. Now there is only one courtyard left in this Green Bamboo Residence." The man in Chinese clothes fell on Liu Ming, and seeing that his cultivation base was not weak, a somewhat flattering smile immediately appeared on his face , nodded again and again.
When Liu Ming heard this, a trace of thought flashed across his face.
According to what Mo Tian said, the secret realm of the Demon Abyss should be relatively secretive, but the time has not yet come, but there is a feeling of a large number of demons swarming here.
"Don't be surprised. In addition to the central royal family and the four great families, there are still many big powers who also have the key to the Demon Abyss, but most of them are held together. In order to deceive people, these big powers will disguise themselves. As soon as I come, I will book a few residences and wait for the day when the secret realm is opened." Mo Tian's voice sounded faintly.
"Well, let's take a look first. If the place is suitable, I'll rent it out." Hearing this, Liu Ming's thoughts changed, and he said so.
"Okay, senior, please come in." The man in the fancy dress led the way with a smile on his face.
The three of them walked into the Green Bamboo Residence, and as expected, as the brown-robed youth had said, it had been converted into several caves with individual doors and courtyards, not too close to each other, and there were about five or six places.
"May I ask your surname senior, how long are you going to stay in Guanghan City?" The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes asked Liu Ming carefully as he walked.
His cultivation is not high, but his vision is not bad. Although he can't sense Liu Ming's cultivation, according to his intuition, Liu Ming should be a true alchemy existence.
"My surname is Ye. You don't need to know anything else. If the place is suitable, I can rent it for a year or two, and you will have to pay for it." Liu Ming said lightly.
"Yes, yes..." The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes nodded repeatedly.
Not long after, under the leadership of the man in Chinese clothes, Liu Ming and the young man in the brown robe came to the depths of the courtyard, a courtyard built against a mountain.
The man in Chinese clothes took out a white token from his arms, shook it a bit, and a white light shot out from the token, which landed on the door.
The door creaked and opened slowly, revealing a small courtyard.
"Senior Ye, please come in." The man in the fancy dress made a gesture of inviting first.
Liu Ming didn't give in either, and walked in.
A piece of green and pristine bamboo was planted in the courtyard. When the breeze blew, the bamboo leaves suddenly made a soft "squeaky" sound, making it extremely quiet.
Behind the courtyard are several cave stone chambers, among which the general practice places are all available, and there is even a small house of earth fire.
Liu Ming walked around inside and outside the cave,
Although the magic energy here is not very strong, the environment is indeed quite good.
"Okay, I'll rent it here for two years." Liu Ming nodded and said.
"Okay, okay, senior, the rent here is 50,000 magic crystals for one year, and a total of 100,000 for two years." The man in the Chinese suit said with a smile on his face.
The expression of the brown-robed youth changed when he heard this, the fee is really not low.
Liu Ming flipped his hand, took out a small cloth bag, and threw it directly to the man in the Chinese suit.
The man in Chinese clothes quickly caught it, and with a sweep of his consciousness, his face suddenly showed a gleam of joy. Inside the cloth bag were ten top-grade magic crystals emitting a strong black light.
"Thank you, senior. From today onwards, this cave is yours. This is the access token. Please keep it." The man in Chinese clothes smiled and handed the white token to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming took the token away expressionlessly.
Seeing this, the brown-robed youth breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Liu Ming is satisfied with the environment here, the black long knife already belongs to him.
The man in Chinese clothes talked about the formation restrictions of this cave, then took his leave and left.
The brown-robed youth originally planned to leave, but was stopped by Liu Ming.
"Senior, what other orders do you have?" The brown-robed youth looked at Liu Ming in awe and asked cautiously.
Liu Ming was able to take out 100,000 magic crystals without hesitation, he was definitely not an ordinary demon, and nine out of ten he was an existence in the middle and late stages of the True Alchemy Realm.
For him, a low-level demon in the spirit apprentice stage, the liquid condensation stage and the crystal transformation stage are all existences to look up to, let alone a demon in the true alchemy stage.
"What's your name?" Liu Ming asked.
"Little Lu Quan." The brown-robed youth replied hastily, excitedly.
"Lu Quan... I think you are also a relatively clever person. There is a business here. From today on, you will collect the information you see in the city, especially the information about those unfamiliar faces, and report to me every day. One time, twenty magic crystals each time, if you do it well, I will give you another set of high-grade magic weapon-level battle armor." Liu Ming said with a faint smile on his face.
When Lu Quan heard this, a look of excitement appeared on his face.
A hyacinth like him leads the way. After a day of hard work, if he is lucky, he can only earn a few low-grade magic crystals. Twenty magic crystals are definitely a lot of money for him. Armor is a treasure for demons in the crystallization stage.
Lu Quanxiu was humble, but his mind was quite active. He took a deep breath, and said to Liu Ming, "Senior, my cultivation is low, and I can't do things like stalking..."
"You don't need to follow, you just need to report to me the situation in the city every day, and you don't need to do other things." Liu Ming waved his hand and said.
"Really? That little one will definitely do his best and follow the instructions of the senior." Lu Quan was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
Liu Ming smiled slightly, took out a white formation disk and handed it to Lu Quan, saying, "From now on, you can use this to contact me."
"Yes, yes." Lu Quan nodded hastily, and put away the white array.
After Liu Ming gave a few more instructions, Lu Quan quickly took his leave and left.
Liu Ming stood in the small courtyard for a while, turned his hand and took out the white token, and with a light shake, the gate was slowly closed, and at the same time, a layer of milky white formation restriction appeared in the sky above the cave.
With a sweep of his consciousness, there was a hint of surprise on his face. The formation restriction in this cave is quite clever, not only has the effect of isolating the detection of the consciousness, but also has a strong protective ability.
After unlocking all the restrictions in the cave, Liu Ming stepped into the secret room of the cave, and with a wave of his hand, several rays of light shot out, falling on all parts of the cave, and opened a cyan formation light curtain.
After finishing all this, Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the futon in the secret room and sat down.
"What a demon in the spirit apprentice stage can do is to collect some superficial information for you at most." Mo Tian's figure emerged and said disdainfully.
"Before you concluded that people from the Liu family would secretly search for my traces. If so, I'd better stay behind closed doors for more than a year. Keep an eyeliner outside, as long as you can understand the general situation in the city." Liu Ming curled his lips, looking indifferent.
"Boy Liu, you are too timid, a mere Liu family scared you like this..." Mo Tian said with a sarcasm with a chuckle.
"One thing more is worse than one thing less. If something happens to me now, senior, your plan to condense the demon body will be ruined." Liu Ming didn't get angry at all, but said with a slight smile.
Mo Tian snorted, and with a wave of his hand, a white jade slip flew in front of Liu Ming.
Liu Ming reached out to catch it, raising his eyebrows.
"The jade slips are the places I visited in the Demon Abyss last time, and they have been drawn into maps, as well as some of my experiences in the Demon Abyss. You can use them for reference." Mo Tian said faintly Said.
Liu Ming was overjoyed upon hearing the words, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, senior."
Mo Tian snorted again, his body moved, and turned into a black light, submerging into Liu Ming's body.
Liu Ming was playing with the jade slip in his hand, but he didn't look at it immediately, but waved his hand, and a cyan square array appeared in front of him.
He flipped his hand and took out a silver talisman and put it on the formation plate, muttering something, a burst of blue light appeared on the cyan formation plate, wrapped the silver talisman, and condensed into a cyan magic circle about the size of a foot, with a little bit of aura linger.
A moment later, the light in the cyan magic circle flickered, and a vague figure of a villain emerged.
"Patriarch?" A voice came from the cyan little man, and the voice was Qing Gu.
"Elder Qinggu, is the clan all right now?" Liu Ming asked with a look on his face.
"Is it really the Patriarch? That's great. Ever since the news of the Liu family's mutiny spread in the First Battle of Heifengao, we have been very worried about you." Qing Gu said in a somewhat excited voice.
"I'm fine now, have you left Tibet now?" Liu Ming said with a warm heart.
"At that time, as soon as I inquired about the changes on the battlefield, I immediately took my family and left the Tuozang Mountains. After connecting with Qingfang, I followed your instructions and immediately moved with my family. Now our Qing family is located near the Yanyun Mountains in Quanzhou. One place to settle down." Qing Gu said.
Liu Ming's expression softened when he heard that, Quanzhou is a state in the central part of the Ten Thousand Devils Continent, not far from Yuzhou, and it should be safe for the Qing family to move there.
"Okay, you guys are going to cultivate there for a while, and I may not be able to go back for a while. The situation in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent is in turmoil right now, so try not to provoke disputes. We will discuss everything after I go back." Liu Ming ordered after thinking for a while. .
"Yes." Qing Gu hurriedly agreed.
In the following time, Liu Ming asked about everything in the family, and then ended the communication with the Qing family.
Everything in the Qing family is fine, so he can rest assured and put all his thoughts on this trip to the Demon Abyss.
After Liu Ming put away the cyan array plate and the magic talisman, he took out the jade slip that Mo Tian had just given him, and then released his spiritual sense to penetrate into it, and pondered carefully.
